DHCP lease map to mac address

by shashi_comp . Updated 18 years, 10 months ago

Hi,

In current DHCP server, many times a single host is assigned more than one active IP addresses against its MAC address, and this causes the DHCP Scope to get full.

By observation we found that, in lease file everytime the UID from the same host changes and thus it is assigned a new IP everytime while not freeing up the last assigned IP address.

How can DHCP server be configured to simply ignore UID and assign the IP addresses against the hosts MAC address not against its UID ?
