Currently FeDHCP implements simple +1 arithmetik
In case the IP of the switch port changed, for whatever reason, FeDHCP fails, because the old leased IPs are still present. A new update logic shall be introduced, which fixes the issue.

Research direction
Start with the IPAM behavior described in the README and trace the FeDHCP code for the metal plugin. Identify how leased IPs are retained when a switch-port IP changes. Done means the plugin updates or replaces stale leases so DHCP continues working after that change, with coverage for the reported scenario.
