Let me save you some typing (SEE ALSO dhcpd.conf(5)):

    # EXAMPLE /etc/dhcpd.conf group entry
    group {
        use-host-decl-names on;
        next-server fai-boot.domain.tld;

        host host0 {
            fixed-address host0.domain.tld;
            hardware ethernet 00:00:00:00:00:00;
        }

        host host1 {
            fixed-address host1.domain.tld;
            hardware ethernet 00:00:00:00:00:01;
        }

        # ... and so on
    }
