[Spread-users] Spread and dynamic IP addresses?

I have an application for Spread that would be set up as a number of
relatively mobile wireless nodes on a LAN.
It is easiest to set up these nodes to get their IP addresses via
DHCP, to avoid managing addresses manually.
But the spread server config files seem to require static IP
addresses.
And, of course, the IP address of a particular node (and spread
server) could change when it renews its DHCP lease. I guess this
isn't too likely, but it is possible.
Would it work to define all the server config files as covering (say)
the first 10 DHCP addresses:
192.168.1.100
through
192.168.1.109
and let Spread servers/clients come and go?
Thanks,
