DHCP won't start with Virtual IP Alias on interface

[ehayon]

I have a bridged interface with a bunch of VLAN interfaces on it.

The IP address on bridge0 is 10.0.0.1/8

DHCP is serving leases on bridge0 from 10.0.1.2 - 10.0.2.254. This is working fine.

However, if I add a virtual IP alias to the bridge0 interface, 172.16.0.1/16 DHCP fails to start.

DHCP error log gives me the following:

Jan  9 19:03:00 t31 dhcpd: bad range, address 10.0.0.2 not in subnet 172.16.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0

For some reason, DHCPD is trying to bind on my virtual IP alias, not the real bridge0 IP.

I don't need DHCP to serve on the 172.16.0.0/16 subnet, as they're all just access points with static IPs. I need to add this VIP to manage those APs from WAN.

Is this a bug, or an intended function?
