Please note that this may not just be a matter of preference to have the second pfsense box designated as secondary dhcp server. I am also hoping it will resolve the issue I reported earlier of running out of free IPs from the dynamic range even before the stash is exhausted. I have completely abandoned using dynamic dhcp in my setup because of this outstanding issue--did not get resolved even after dhcpd package was updated to the latest version. Thanks.

Thanks. Woops, I misread this originally. Please ignore me.
