Description

When searching for an unused ip address, there are cases when knowing the mac address might help.

for example, if the host has already a lease, we can reuse the same ip address (otherwise it would not be suggested to anyone else).
or, if a dhcp record already exists for that mac address, it makes little sense to change the ip address just to complain about a conflict later on.
