Hi Chris,

Contributions are very welcome, so go for it! :)

Regarding the proposed implementation, you'll be passing a Set but
allocating only one Ip. Couldn't this cause confusion to users? Also, the
Ip in the set that will actually be allocated is not predictable.

Would it be better to pass just one Ip, or allocate all them, if keeping
the Set?

Thanks for taking this!

I.
