RE: redis_ippool module doesnot process lease_time in ack

Huh? That doesn't make sense. The lease_time configuration item is supposed to be a number. Like "86400".
dhcp server: recv DHCP-Request { ... update reply { &DHCP-IP-Address-Lease-Time = 3600
If you're setting the lease time here, why use the redis_ippool module? I'm not sure that I understand. Alan DeKok.
dhcp server: recv DHCP-Request { ... update reply { &DHCP-IP-Address-Lease-Time = 3600 &DHCP-Domain-Name-Server = 72.173.31.41 ... }
Could you also provide the command that you used to create the pool and addresses in it. -Arran
