Have you run into any problems considering synching the leases?
Since DHCP uses broadcast and multicast addresses when a client is discovering a server, it's not obvious why you'd have to.
Because clients will switch to unicast for renewal. Also clients will stay with the current server forever, so you might have a bad distribution of load between the servers. If one server was down everyone will switch to the other and never go back until forced. Regards Baldur
