Are you aware of a DHCP server that will allow the same IP address for 2
different MACs on the same network at the same time? Normally, a MAC address "owns" the IP address for the duration of the lease. Yes, ISC dhcpd if you assign IP addresses by host declaration instead of letting it pick an IP address from a pool. I'm doing this at home but I know the side effects and act accordingly.
I do that too, but my DHCP server (pfSense) won't allow duplicate IP addresses. In fact, I accidentally ran into that yesterday, when I was trying to configure an address for my new tablet. ;) On my home network, I use static configuration for my main desktop, router and access point, but use DHCP with assigned addresses for everything else. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
