<br>
The problem for us is that we manage reservations through a central<br>
MySQL database (through a fancy UI for our hell desk), but leases are<br>
stored in memfiles on each DHCP server (8 HA setups for 16 total). So<br>
our tooling doesn't directly connect to the dhcp servers (and doesn't<br>
even know which dhcp server a reservation 'belongs' to).<br>
<br>
If there is no other way, we'll have to rework our tooling to find out<br>
where to send this API call to (and punch some holes into the<br>
firewalls). Not the end of the world, but this seems to be a feature<br>
more people could benefit from. <br>
