Hi Geert Stappers,

I am aware on the https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2131, but would
like to whether the FORCE-RENEW(
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3203) option is supported in
dnsmasq.
If it is supported, what is the configuration to be used to have the
FORCE-RENEW functionality enabled?

Thanks and Regards
Gokul
