Hello, The idea of this patch taken from dnsmasq: * the same ip address offering for clients with expired lease (almost always) without any additional state saving * prevent the same ip address allocation for different interfaces of the same station. dumb Windows dhcp-client (win7) ACKs same-subnet IP address, no matter if it was previously assigned to the other interfaces, and can't assign it to the current one, even if that different interface is down. mac-based allocation makes this "endless discover-offer-request-ack loop" issue almost impossible.
