DHCP Release API

[kostyan5]

Hi,

Is there a way to have ESP32 client send "DHCP release" to the access point?

In our use case, we may have hundreds of devices all connecting to the same access point for a few seconds every half hour. Currently, first 254 to connect get IPs and default DHCP lease time is 24 hours. This means that all other devices are unable to connect until DHCP lease expires and then it's a race again. We would like to have ESP32 request DHCP release upon completion of its wake cycle.

Thanks,

Konstantin
