[Dnsmasq-discuss] Some clients get wrong IP

[Claes Parflo]

Hello, 

I allocate IPs from hosts file. All goes well for D-Link IP cams, but TRENDnet IP cams get random DHCP IPs instead of MAC address bound addresses. This is resolved only by entering respective cam and issuing reboot. After reboot the correct IP is received, not via power-off/on.

I have emptied /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases before adding cam's and sent SIGHUP before powering on cam's.

Allocated IPs by dnsmasq after cold boot:
root at debian:/# cat /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases
1324397450 f0:7d:68:08:f2:59 192.168.5.163 D-Link930L 01:f0:7d:68:08:f2:59
1324397424 f0:7d:68:02:fb:d2 192.168.5.162 D-Link930 01:f0:7d:68:02:fb:d2
1324397377 00:14:d1:f0:a6:d0 192.168.5.116 TV-IP110W 01:00:14:d1:f0:a6:d0
1324397377 00:14:d1:f1:2b:89 192.168.5.143 TV-IP312W 01:00:14:d1:f1:2b:89

Hosts file /home/config/macaddr
root at debian:/home/config# cat macaddr
00:14:D1:F1:2B:89,TV-IP312W,192.168.5.160,20m
00:14:D1:F0:A6:D0,TV-IP110W,192.168.5.161,20m
F0:7D:68:02:FB:D2,D-Link930,192.168.5.162,20m
F0:7D:68:08:F2:59,D-Link930L,192.168.5.163,20m



Configuration: /etc/dnsmasq.conf
interface=br0
expand-hosts
domain=my.home
dhcp-range=192.168.5.50,192.168.5.150,20m
dhcp-hostsfile=/home/config/macaddr
dhcp-lease-max=30
dhcp-authoritative

Have anyone seen this behavior before, is the cam's at fault?


Regards,
