Can DHCP server give out a lease time greater then one requested by DHCP client?

Question

I have a centOS DHCP server configured to give out a lease of 20 mins. But a client is requesting a lease for 10 mins. Is it possible to configure dhcpd to give out a lease of 20 mins even if client requests for a 10 mins lease.

Answer 1

See dhcpd.conf(5):

   The min-lease-time statement

      min-lease-time time;

      Time should be the minimum length in seconds that will be assigned to a lease.
