If by "packet inspecting", you mean that the DHCP server is looking inside the packets, I don't think that's what is happening. We're doing this same thing (leasing IPs based on the customer PC's MAC address) using the standard ISC dhcpd. I think the Airbridges forward DHCP requests with the PC's MAC address, rather than their own. Not that it matters, but WET11s do this as well.
