ISC DHCP server offers fixed IP addresses to ANY device!

[Jatinder Goswami]

H Daniel,

isc-dhcpd has this issue. So as Daniel mentioned, you need to divide your
range in such a way that it does not include fixed addresses to overcome
this problem.

Otherwise, replace isc-dhcpd with dnsmasq, which supports this feature.

Cheers !
