[Dnsmasq-discuss] Lease duration for hosts without names

[Donald Muller]

Have them turn off MAC randomization or modify your dnsmasq config to increase the pool or set a short lease time while they are guests.

Subject: [Dnsmasq-discuss] Lease duration for hosts without names


I have some house guests who brought devices that randomize their macs and don't provide host names. Due to their usage patterns they quickly exhausted my small DHCP pool.

Is there a way that I can tag hosts that don't provide a name so that I can provide a custom/shorter lease time?
