Text::DHCPparse - README The basic premise of the Text::DHCPparse module is to parse the lease file from an ISC DHCPd server. This is useful for quick reporting on active leases or for tracking purposes. The resulting hash reference is a fixed length record with the key being the IP address for the lease, and the value being the lease info in the following format: Characters Field ---------- -------------------- 1 - 17 IP Address 18 - 38 Last Lease Timestamp 39 - 57 Hardware Address 58 - 74 Client Hostname WARNING: Always use a copy of your 'dhcpd.leases' file - never use an original from a live server!
