nwamd log
Recently we ran into an issue while testing, where we were getting an IP
address from the DHCP server that someone else had statically assigned to their
machine.
This cause the i/f to change state constantly due to the duplicated address
causing DHCP to drop it and look for another .
nwamd needs to detect this situation and handle it in a way that informs the
user of the problem so that they can reasonably seek admin action to resolve
it.
To me this would require that we communicate the duplicate address situation,
with information about the address that's causing it.
