DHCP release configuration

With chilli I remember a dhcp timeout variable where chillispot would release an IP after a set time specified in one of its configuration files.

Is there something similar in coova? If so, where?

Someone on the forums wrote the following:

>>> you mean coova-chilli release ip if this client has no connect a while? if so,, you can try "--lease" parameter ,default it`s 600 seconds.

Is that a switch when running coova or in a configuration file somehwere?

We have our config in /usr/local/etc/chilli/

We start chilli services by running /usr/local/etc/init.d/chilli start

So I guess what I am saying i dont know exactly where to places the --release command, also, how do i state the seconds? I want it to release after 120 seconds.
