Hi,

I just found the SYNCHRONISATION section of the dhcpd manual page. Sounds great 
- thanks for again implementing such a nice simple feature into OpenBSD.

I also had a look into dhcpd.c and sync.c and with my limited knowledge tried 
to answer the following question:

Is there any mechanism to compensate for a member of the synchronisation group 
being offline and coming back online after the other member(s) have generated 
new leases? As far as I understand, the member that is coming back online does 
not get bulk updates as it is the case with CARP and pfsync.

Am I right, that the user of such a setup is expected to fetch a current copy 
of dhcpd.leases before he starts dhcpd in sync mode? Or is there some other 
mechanism I did not see?

Kind Regards,
Christian
