Subject: feature: dhclient should log the offered address
When dhclient gets a DHCPOFFER, it logs a message containing the source of the offer - that is, a message like: Apr 17 12:16:51 spratly dhclient: DHCPOFFER from 128.177.195.190 It would be nice if this message also contained the offer itself, such as: Apr 17 12:16:51 spratly dhclient: DHCPOFFER of 128.177.195.135 from 128.177.195.190 or something like that. This would help when trying to determine when/why a client gets the wrong lease. Brian

Hello Brian: Well, it took us a little while but we finally addressed your request for the lease address to be added to dhclient DHCPv4 log messages. The changes will be included in our next feature release, 4.4.0, due out Q1/2018. We like to thank our contributors by citing them in the release notes. If you would like to noted in this manner please respond with how you wish to be identified. Regards, Thomas Markwalder ISC Software Engineering
