Yes.  The subnet declarations are as I pasted in my first message, with
no host declarations in them.

Well, if that's a way to force the options from the proper subnet, then
maybe that's my solution, despite this seeming wrong.

But I was always under the impression that declaring hosts inside subnet
statements was considered wrong, or at least, bad form.

However, just to try to use classes/subclasses to rectify this I
modified my configuration as follows:

class "mgmt" {
    match pick-first-value (option dhcp-client-identifier, hardware);
}

shared-network foo {
    subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
         #allow members of "mgmt";
         option routers             192.168.0.1;
         option domain-name         "subnet.example.com";
         option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.4;
         option subnet-mask         255.255.255.0;
         default-lease-time         21600;
         max-lease-time             43200;
    }
    subnet 10.14.80.0 netmask 255.255.248.0 {
         option routers             10.14.80.1;
         option domain-name         "subnet.example.com";
         option domain-name-servers 10.14.80.8, 10.14.80.9, 10.14.80.6;
         option subnet-mask         255.255.248.0;
         pool {
             range dynamic-bootp        10.14.80.100 10.14.83.254;
             deny members of "mgmt";
         }
         default-lease-time         21600;
         max-lease-time             43200;
         next-server                10.14.80.6;
    }
}

subclass "mgmt" 1:00:1e:67:6d:37:1d;
host lotus-1-mgmt.subnet.example.com {
    hardware ethernet 00:1e:67:6d:37:1d;
    fixed-address 192.168.0.1;
}

Yet the lease offered to the client still has a mixture of IP address
from the second subnet and options from the first (I've included the
request also, just for good measure):

Now given that the problem is that the client is receiving options from
the first subnet, ideally I could put some kind of allow/deny in there
ensuring that hosts that are not in the class "mgmt" can't get anything
from that subnet but there is no pool in the first subnet since they are
all fixed-addresses and allow/denying based on classes seems to be
limited to pools.

But TBH, I don't think this really has anything to do with classes since
the root problem is the mixing of assigned address and options from the
two different subnets.  I can't imagine any configuration where that
should be possible/valid.

Cheers,
b.
