When the DHCP server is considering dynamically allocating an IP address to a
client, it first sends an ICMP Echo request (a ping) to the address being
assigned. It waits for a second, and if no ICMP Echo response has been heard,
it assigns the address.
If a response is heard, the lease is abandoned, and the server does not
respond to the client. The lease will remain abandoned for a minimum of
abandon-lease-time seconds (defaults to 24 hours).
