Speaking of which -- the regular empeg load (v3alpha11, at least) has this exact same problem.

I cannot use DHCP for my empegs when more than one of them is powered on, as otherwise they *all* end up with identical IP addresses.

Presumably you could fix it hijack by intercepting the DHCP packets and putting in a properly unique client id ?
