Can't give a complete answer, but yes, dhcp can give the same IP address
to a given MAC address each time. (sometimes referred to as a 'sticky'
address, as 'static' is often used as "not dhcp").
That's easy to set up; you just tell it like
host gobo {
hardware ethernet 00:01:03:33:37:37;
fixed-address gobo.internal;
}
where gobo.internal resolves to an IP address, or replace that with an
actual IP address.
good times,
