Allocation is done by AuthBy DYNADDRESS which uses AddressAllocator SQL
or DHCP accessing the address pool. See goodies/addressallocator.cfg for
a complete example.

When a Stop is lost, SQL allocator's ReclaimQuery will mark the address
as available again. What it does it reclaims all addresses that have
exceeded their expiry time.

Please see ReclaimQuery and AddressAllocator SQL and DHCP in the
reference manual. The goodies directory also containts examples, see
goodies/addressallocator*

Thanks,
