== General information
-With this command you can check usage of pool addresses when address space
-is great. Command is designed so that it will not get slow even there is
-thousands of IPs in lease file. This kind of huge dhcpd installation can be
-near by DSL DSLAMs or some other public access connection points.

+
+ This command will not print nice to know information like
+ DHCPStatus does. Output is limited only to list only
+ usage for ranges, shared network and total address space.
+ Limiting what is printed is the right thing to do when
+ there is thousands of addresses. If your address space is
+ small some other dhcp analyzer might be more suitable for
+ you.
+
+
+== Test data wanted
+
+ Maintainer is interested to get copy of your dhcpd.conf
+ and dhcpd.leases file, with includes if you use them.
+ Intention is to collect large set of data to build
+ realistic regression test environment. By giving your
+ data to maintainer you can be sure that updates will work
+ for you.
+
+ If you are interested to help this way put all files into
+ tar.gz, and send them to kerolasa@iki.fi. It would be nice
+ that email subject line would have 'dhcpd-pools test data'.
