Confirmed on Utopic, but for me the behavior may have been different than described. A few issues I saw:

(1) 'requested_ip' is incorrect usage for this API. It should be 'requsted_address'. However, because the parameter is optional, when 'requested_ip' instead of 'requested_address', an IP address in the static range was assigned (but not the IP address that was requested on the command line).

(2) The static address was not written to the DHCP leases database, so the node retained its dynamic IP address.

(3) After claiming the IP address with the proper 'requested_address' syntax, the node retained the previous IP (dynamically allocated from the static pool) rather than switching to the one I requested.
