dhcpd heartbeat cluster und server-identifier

Hello!

I want to build a dhcpd cluster with heartbeat and drbd for fault tolerance.
I have 2 dhcp server, every with his own ip (192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2)
and the active node holds the clusterip 192.168.0.10.

I've tried to set the server-identifier to 192.168.0.10, that the
server listens to this ip.

But as i see the packes to the client are always sent by the primary
server ip (eg 192.168.0.1).
Will that be a problem for the clients when they send the DHCPREQUEST
to 192.168.0.10 and get an answer from 192.168.0.1?
Is there a solution for this on isc side? I dont want to use nat for
this. Or can this just be ignored?

thanks Stefan
