If address space is scarce, allocate it dynamically. That's what DHCP is

Another use case for DHCP is mobile operation. As a station moves from
gateway to gateway DHCP (with Dynamic DNS) makes routing much simpler.
Also remember, not all Net-44 traffic will be travelling via AX.25. For
example D-STAR DD sends encapsulated Ethernet packets over the air
interface so DHCP works quite simply. (At least using ircDDBGateway
implementation.)
