How to reserve IP addresses for some hosts and ignore other hosts

Use start=254 limit=0 and add a static lease with a random mac for this address.

That seems rather workaround-y to me. Is there a functional difference to what the forum user below suggested?

Disable dynamic DHCP and serve only static leases

Try this script #!/bin/sh uci set dhcp.lan.dynamicdhcp=0 uci commit dhcp service dnsmasq restart Obviously dynamicdhcp=1 will enable it back.
