you use dhcpd to configure other machines over network, not your own.

and, dnsmasq is not dhcpd. While it can act as dhcp server, the same applies
as above.

yeah, my fault!

it's dhcpcd - dhcp client
not dhcpd - dhcp server!

I'm sorry OP.

It does however seem to be part of the Raspbian Pi Jesse release (of
which I am unable to find man documentation online):

https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/137443/dhcpcd-conf-inform-vs-static-ip-vs-request-how-should-you-really-setup-a-static
In this OS apparently you *DO* set static configuration for the host
in the dhcpd configuration. ?!

The above link appears to reference quite a few issues with these
configurations and perhaps a better forum for Johan's issues (?)

this is correct - dhsmasq it not a dhcp client and we don't need to know how dhcpcd works.

perhaps dhcpcd really sets static IP without requesting it over the network
(which is exactly what should be done when you are DHCP server for that network).
