Bumping this patch again:
http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/pipermail/dnsmasq-discuss/2018q4/012707.html
I see there have been several request to include this on the list:
http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/pipermail/dnsmasq-discuss/2019q1/012895.html (and others ...) afaict there has not been any objections to the
patch.
We are trying to make Openstack Ironic deploy baremetal servers in a
setup where Openstack Neutron is used. Neutron uses dnsmasq and the MAC
address as identifier to assign IPv6 addresses in a static only setup,
config details at bottom of this mail.
The problem with DUID/IAID changes as the baremetal node is moving
trough the deployment phases UEFI->iPXE->Deploy Ramdisk resulting in
"no address available" has always been a blocker for this to work. (The
issue was discussed on this list a some time ago,
http://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/pipermail/dnsmasq-discuss/2017q1/thread.html#11267
)
This patch solves this problem of changing DUID/IAID's.
Is there a reason not to merge the patch?
