It would be nice to incorporate DHCP backup with the teleporter. What I mean by this, is the ability to backup your static DHCP leases, as well as the address pool and other settings in the admin GUI.
While I don't think the static leases are backed-up, all of the other settings in the web interface are backed up as part of setupVars.conf
The other files that would be a helpful export with teleporter are /etc/hosts and /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.conf
I didnt find this to be the case - I was using Teleporter to migrate from a flaky NeoPi to a RaspberriPi and the DHCP settings (IE - enabled, range) were not imported. I'll take a look at the exported file tonight and see if they're there.
Correct, the setupVars settings are not reapplied, but they are backed up in the archive.
This feature is added to Pi-Hole V5. DHCP leases and the /etc/hosts file are exported by the Teleporter.
