Feature Request: Manage all devices in the leases file, not just foreman managed

I would really like to manage IP Addresses for all devices found by my DHCP
server, not just the ones discovered by Foreman. Examples: UPSes, managed
PDUs, BMCs, other people's servers (not managed by my Foreman), Appliances
that ruby/puppet cannot be installed on.

My current management method is to add a 'host' entry in the dhcpd.conf
file, but this is cumbersome and error-prone. My alternative is to install
a gui manager like phpDHCPadmin, but I would really like to keep it in
Foreman.

Thanks!

Then use the foreman dhcp plugin? :slight_smile:

Ohad, I must be doing something wrong then. I have the dhcp_browser
plugin installed and all I see are the DHCP Reservations of the machines
I'm managing in puppet. Is there some setting I glossed over that needs to
allow management of all leases?
