Hello! Is it possible to completely switch off the checks in dnsmasq and let it serve identical IPĀ adress(es) for multiple MAC addresses (even at the same time - when the first lease is yet active)? I need it for handover (of Laptops) between LAN and WiFi, so that the TCP connections don't get broken when moving LAN -> WiFi or vice versa. (Both MAC addresses are on a bridged LAN/WiFi segment and the handover works wonderfull if I set static IP for the LAN and serve the same IP over WiFi from DHCP/dnsmasq. But I'd like not to have to configure the clients manually...)
I use version 2.55 (OpenWrt / Backfire), tried to set "option no_ping 1" and "option rebind_protection 0" in the section "config dnsmasq" of the /etc/config/dhcp (but cannot find any reasonable documentation for this config file, don't know how much standard this config file is; /etc/dnsmasq.conf doesn't seem to change anything anyway). However it seems that dnsmasq would even not read the appropriate IP/MAC pairs from /etc/ethers: Mar 22 18:53:28 ********* daemon.info dnsmasq[2322]: read /etc/hosts - 16 addresses Mar 22 18:53:28 ********* daemon.err dnsmasq-dhcp[2322]: ignoring /etc/ethers line 12, duplicate name or IP address So my question is: is this somehow possible? And: can this be done with OpenWrt? Thanks! Peter
