I just replied to my original e-mail what I thought was going on. Use to seeing
leases disappear and get reused instantly in Windows DHCP server so I never see
pool get near the end in most cases. Checked on my packetfence box the other
day and was near the end of the pool thinking leases was not expiring. Am I
correct that it uses them all then checks back with lease file to see which
bindings are in free state? Thanks.

This may be a non-issue after looking at our other Packetfence servers. I'm use
to using dhcp through Windows server but correct me if I am wrong in my
assumption. Appears that the linux dhcp continues to use up IP's until it gets
to the end of the pool then looks back at the .leases file to determine which
leased IP's are in "binding state free" to reuse IP's. I noticed after looking
at file more that some say "state free" and others "state active." Just scared
me a little when I saw it getting near end of IP pool. Thanks.
Hi Jeremy,
Seems to me like the system works ;-)
Was there a problem you wanted to fix in the first place?
