Thankyou very much for that information.  I do not have to pull the cable to see the "deleted" message in dhcpcd.log.

On another run, in /var/log/messages:
Mar  6 02:14:59 2018 4550V2 ntpd[7371]: Deleting interface #3 eth1, 192.168.2.150#123, interface stats: received=0, sent=0, dropped=0, active_time=4 secs

This occurs before the dhcpcd.log shows it was deleted:
Mar 06 02:15:17 [6615]: eth1: deleted IP address 192.168.2.150/24

I will look into why this 3rd party software deleted it.

To make life easier I added this patch:
https://roy.marples.name/git/dhcpcd.git/commit/?id=c8d1a4150812b2d01c9cc2e5272a2ba19bc0196f

Now, the process id which deleted the address will be logged.

Good luck!
