Like others, I've switched from ISC to DNSmasq DHCP.  It seems to be working fine overall, except I've noticed that local DNS names for static DHCP leases defined in DNSmasq > Hosts are not resolved until the first DHCP request/offer exchange.  Is this normal?

Thanks!
dhcp-host=00:11:22:33:44:55,set:device1,192.168.1.100,mydevice.localThis will only be actively registered in dnsmasq's internal DNS table after the device actually sends a DHCP request and receives a lease.

Until then, dnsmasq knows of the entry, but doesn't consider it "active" and won't resolve mydevice local to the IP yet.
