I've been having issues with PacketFence DHCP performance on the registration network. Maybe someone can suggest a solution or a way to troubleshoot. I have tried everything I could. My setup: VM with AlmaLinux 8 and PacketFence 12.0. The issue started on 11.2 and I upgraded to see if it resolves but no luck. Issue: Clients on the registration network randomly fail to get a lease when many IP addresses are still available in the DHCP scope. DHCP log fills up with the following records: (note IP address 192.168.32.10 is the first in the scope) Oct 14 11:15:17 rpsnac pfdhcp[3388964]: t=2022-10-14T11:15:17-0400 lvl=info msg="Temporarily
