Re: ippool seems to be consistent about the IP addresses that it's giving out

I am using ippool and it seems that it is using the same IP addresses all the time(given that they are available). So when I am testing with just one client, I get two alternating addresses. Am I missing something or this is the wanted behaviour?

I think it's the way the module works, but it could allocate addresses by "last used". i.e. Don't re-use an address until every other address has been re-used. Also, it *should* try to give a particular MAC address (if it has the MAC) the same address, where possible. Alan DeKok.
