Hi,

I am new to isc dhcp, and i am facing following situation , and need help
to understand,

Scenario.:
I am having 3 devices called, A,B,C. On dhcp conf pool is restricted to *only
one IP*.
Also on dhcpd conf *static bind is enabled* for device A.


1.Plug device A to network -> with out issue device got IP

DHCPOFFER on 51.101.0.10 to 00:20:d2:3a:51:69 via 51.101.0.1
Commit: IP: 51.101.0.10 Mac: 0:20:d2:3a:51:69 Name: 51.101.0.10ClientGW:
51.101.0.1

2.Unplug device A and change the static conf MAC to B's MAC(Restart dhcpd
server) and Plug device B

No issue device B got IP,
DHCPOFFER on 51.101.0.10 to 00:20:d2:39:24:f8 via 51.101.0.1
Commit: IP: 51.101.0.10 Mac: 0:20:d2:39:24:f8 Name: 51.101.0.10ClientGW:
51.101.0.1

3. Replug the device A *with out removing device B*,
A received the IP even though B is having it, A's IP is active and B's IP
is not active.

DHCPDISCOVER from 00:20:d2:3a:51:69 via 51.101.0.1: network 51.101.0.0/19:
no free leases
Reclaiming abandoned lease 51.101.0.10.
ICMP Echo reply while lease 51.101.0.10 valid.
Abandoning IP address 51.101.0.10: pinged before offer
DHCPDISCOVER from 00:20:d2:3a:51:69 via 51.101.0.1: cancel load balance to
peer XXX - no free leases
DHCPDISCOVER from 00:20:d2:3a:51:69 via 51.101.0.1
DHCPOFFER on 51.101.0.10 to 00:20:d2:3a:51:69 via 51.101.0.1
Commit: IP: 51.101.0.10 Mac: 0:20:d2:3a:51:69 Name: 51.101.0.10ClientGW:
51.101.0.1





Why this is happening, I do not want DHCPD to offer the IP to another
device when it is bind on static file to another device.But strange thing
is when i plug device C when only device B(*same way as device A plug in
step 3 but this time not device A instead device C is used.*) is there , C
naver receive a IP as i expected.Help is very much appreciated,What is
happening with device A and B??


Thank You,
chamara
