[Dnsmasq-discuss] DHCP Address - Lease in numerical order

Hey All,

I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find mention of it, but does
dnsmasq support DHCP addresses being handed out in numerical order?

I want the first box connected to get .100, then 101 for the next one
and so forth.  I see there is some logic in there to check and see if
its already been taken, but from what I see here, the addresses that I
get appear to be random.

I am specifying a start and end for the pool using the dhcp-range, but
I guess thats just possible addresses, not where it will acutally
start giving out addresses.

Anyhelp, or assistance in this matter would be much apprecieated.

Thank you!
Eric Arnoldy
