ubuntu-fan hard coded dhcp options

[Robert Krambovitis]

Good morning,

On Ubuntu 15.04
ubuntufan: 0.3.0~15.04.1

Been experimenting with lxd and ubuntu-fan.
Seems like a match made in heaven, and thank you for creating these.
However please instead of using hard-coded dhcp options for dnsmasq, instead give us an option to set/use a dnsmasq config file.

Use case:
Replace usage of lxcbr0 with fan-xxx-xxx-xxx for use with lxd.

Although we are using dnsmasq in this instance for address allocation we are trying to avoid exposing the fact that it is dnsmasq in use, and to allow configuration the address allocation.

What are you trying to configure differently. It would be preferable (if at all possible) to allow configuration of the specific semantic items.

As a work around, you can of course just request no dhcp support and run dnsmasq separately.

Iirc, what I wanted to do was to assign specific fan ip addresses to lxd containers based on container name.

i.e. by setting dhcp-host=container,ip_addr

What I did in the end was just that. Disabled dhcp and setup my own instance of dnsmasq.
