The DHCP server is configured via UCI in /etc/config/dhcp. /etc/config/dhcp can be modified by using UCI CLI, LuCI WebUI or by simply editing that file with a text editor. To apply the changes restart dnsmasq with '/etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart'.

Possible options for /etc/config/dhcp are:
- http://dev.luci.freifunk-halle.net/docs … p.dhcp.xml
- http://dev.luci.freifunk-halle.net/docs … nsmasq.xml

The latest release does not have dnsmasq.conf file. dhcp settings are saved in /etc/config/dhcp file.
By using uci or modifying the dhcp file, how can I assign static/fixed ip addresses to host in latest release ?
The dnsmasq or dhcp link do not hvae the info .
thanks,

Is /etc/config/luci_hosts what you are looking for?

Example /etc/config/luci_hosts

config 'host'
        option 'hostname' 'router'
        option 'ipaddr' '192.168.1.1'
