maybe I missed it, but
- why not using systemd? It has a DHCP server as well
So I have a use case that currently is making dnsmasq handle dhcp and
dns requests (I was uncertain to call this dhcp or dns-server
actually). The features available in dnsmasq go beyond what systemd
provides (ability to run a dhcp6 server for instance) and if somebody
was interested in running a dhcp server that systemd can provide it is
already currently available.
- why not ISC DHCPD? It has probably the richest feature set.
ISC DHCPD does have the richest feature set I agree but my thought to
use dnsmasq was born mostly out of a specific usage of dnsmasq that
currently exists. I do not like that I'd suggest if somebody wants a
dns server to install the dhcp-server bundle and I would be inclined
to add ISC DHCPD to this bundle eventually once somebody finds a need
for it.
