Peter...
Thanks for getting back on this. Alas, I had my head in a data center
this weekend.
We started off with no IDs in the non-shared example and found that
moving to the shared example and adding the new prefix, we had a
conflict with the leases db. In looking through the documentation, it
suggested we assign Ids to pools, which make sense. That was added to
avoid the conflict in the prefixes.
The API call I demostrated was for the non-shared config in showing that
we were able to get leases out that way. Alas, I didn't keep the result
from the API call when we tried to move to a shared-networks config. My
bad.
I do have PCAP files for both servers from the time we were trying to
deploy this. Would that be helpful?
