Then start the dhcpd service again and the dhcpd server update the lease that you just manually created with any new updated information. Yes, it’s something I’ve done when I’ve had special requirements - e.g. creating a new reserved lease for a device. From memory you might not even need times - it’s sufficient to create a skeleton entry with the IP address, the MAC address or Client-ID the device will use, and in my case, the “reserved” flag. When the client contacts the server, the server will fill everything else in as required. Simon -- ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
