[Dnsmasq-discuss] Leases file is not updated and dhcp-script is not called if Requested-IP is in the pool.

I've erased the leases file and started dnsmasq.

A client makes a request with a Requested-IP that is in the configured pool.

Dnsmasq replies and the client begins using the requested address.

However, the leases file is not updated, and the dhcp-script is not called.

If the client requested address is outside the configured pool, the leases
file is updated and the dhcp-script is called.

 

What is the correct behavior if a requested address is not in the leases
file?

Shouldn't the dhcp-script be called?

 

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 dnamasq 2.79.

 

Any ideas will be welcome.
