Hey, I have an OT question about the always-broadcast option of the dhcpd server.
Based on the Wikipedia article, all DHCP messages to the client are sent to the broadcast address. This makes sense, since the UDP protocol used by DHCP runs on top of the IP protocol, and the client does not have an IP address until the DHCP negotiation is completed. So, what is the use of this option? Under what circumstances should the server not broadcast its messages?
