not follow the normal lease lifecycle nor are they stored in the
dhcpd.leases file. This is the traditional way to make sure a client
gets a specific address all the time in the ISC dhcp server, and you
must manually make sure any pool's range statements don't include the
fixed-addresses in the range.
This is exactly what I was wanting to do.
The discussion resulting from this question shows me that I need a good
reference manual so that I can learn the correct syntax.
Could you please give me an example what the statement would look like
and could you recommend some good reference material so I could learn
proper syntax.
Thanks,
Eric
