RTMU86 has a led indicator that is lid when the address has been assigned
to it.
1. If I plug RTMU86 to the home router - the led is on, I can find its IP
in the router's lease list and I can ping this IP
2. If I plug RTMU86 to the RPi with isc-dhcp-server configured - the led is
on, I can find its IP in the  isc-dhcp-server's lease list and I can ping
this IP
3. If I plug RTMU86 to the RPi with Dnsmasq configured - I can use tcpdump
which gives me this output (I changed MAC  addresses):
> 16:17:31.125779 IP 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: BOOTP/DHCP,
Request from fa:XX:XX:XX:XX:1c (oui Unknown), length 300
So I presume that  RTMU86 indeed sends DHCP packages, but the led is off
and I can not find it in the Dnsmasq lease list.

PS. I've read in FAQ about 255.255.255.255 broadcast and invalid firewall
rules, but I don't have any firewall rules and I'm not changing network
config files when switching to isc-dhcp-server (which I use as a benchmark)

Kind regards,
Kamil
