For a while now I observe my DHCP server giving out DHCP IPv4 leases to a freenas resource (the listing is from my router, a avm fritz box 7270):
The cause for the ever changing IP addresses is a randomized MAC address of the epair0a device in freenas. The MAC address seems to be randomized at system startup which my freenas does on a daily basis (it is a backup server and does not need to run 24/7 - saves me money on my electricity bill)
Is there any way make epair0a use the same MAC address and prevent DHCP lease space pollution?
