Host getting logged out of Hotspot. Please help

Fri Sep 14, 2007 3:36 am

I have my timeouts for Hotspot set for 2 days. Once the user logs in and disconnects I want them to stay logged onto hotspot for up to 2 days without being logged out. However I have my DHCP leases set low but I need them low for my wireless Basestation's DHCP relay table. When the user disconnects their PC it seems that DHCP assigns their address to another host and I see Host Removed: Logged Out: Overrided by Static entry. Is there any way to fix this? It is becoming very frustrating.

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

If the DHCP lease changes for the client, then the host is also going to change in hotspot making the cookie invalid. Maybe you could use 'make-static' in /ip dhcp-server lease for some clients where possible.
