conflict resolution (the default). If this option is disabled, it will
instead trust the assigned name implicitly (removing any other bindings
on that name). This option has not been made available in dhclient.

are moved to BACKUP state rather than FREE upon exiting EXPIRED state.
If lease rebalancing must move leases, it tries first to move leases
that belong to the peer in need.
- The server no longer sends POOLREQ messages unless the pool is severely
misbalanced in the peer's favor (see 'man dhcpd.conf' for more details).
- Pool rebalance events no longer happen upon successfully allocating a
lease. Instead, they happen on a schedule. See 'man dhcpd.conf' for the
min-balance and max-balance statements for more information.

priority. This helps a small minority of clients that provide parameter
request lists, but do not list the subnet-mask option because they were
designed to interoperate with a server that behaves in this manner.
[ISC-Bugs #1196]
- The FQDN option is similarly supplied even if it does not appear on the
parameter request list, but not to the exclusion of options that do
appear at the parameter request list. Up until now it had ultimate
priority over the client's parameter request list. [ISC-Bugs #1196]

it should not intercept. [ISC-Bugs #15573]

is already documented, this duplicates it. Probably confused cvs merging
somehow from the fact that a single word was added...
