I need to setup dnsmasq to ignore unknown devices and I have been able
to do so with 2.40 but I have a configuration issue that I think may be
a bug.
Here is what i want to have.
dhcp-range=10.7.5.100,10.7.5.254,24h
dhcp-ignore=#known
dhcp-hostsfile=/etc/dnsmasq.d/#hostsfile#
dhcp-host=tc01,10.7.5.13
dhcp-host=tc02,10.7.5.14
This should, in theory, allocate IPs to devices with MAC addresses
listed in the '#hostsfile#' and devices named 'tc01' and 'tc02'. But
when "dhcp-ignore=#known" is defined 'tc01' and 'tc02' are ignored.
This config works, but requires the MAC for 'tc01' to be defined.
dhcp-range=10.7.5.100,10.7.5.254,24h
dhcp-ignore=#known
dhcp-hostsfile=/etc/dnsmasq.d/#hostsfile#
dhcp-host=00:20:4a:9c:52:c2,10.7.5.13,tc01
So what i am looking for is to be able to use "#known" and "hostsfile"
as well as allocate fixed IPs to devices by name.
Is this by design or a bug?
