#17658: odhcpd will honor request for different IP, even if static lease already
exists
----------------------+-----------------------------------
 Reporter:  pdffs     |      Owner:  developers
     Type:  defect    |     Status:  new
 Priority:  normal    |  Milestone:  Barrier Breaker 14.07
Component:  packages  |    Version:  Barrier Breaker 14.07
 Keywords:  odhcpd    |
----------------------+-----------------------------------
 If a client has a static lease configured, but sends a DHCPREQUEST for a
 different IP address, odhcpd will return the IP requested by the client
 rather than the static IP.

 Why would a client do this?  I have no idea generally (tracking down a
 separate bug in NetworkManager), but a potentially legitimate scenario
 where the client is doing the right thing might be if the static lease is
 added while the client already has a lease for a different IP address - it
 will never get the static IP, because odhcpd will honour the DHCPREQUEST
 in preference to the configured static lease.  This is not the expected
 behaviour.
