Add cAP with all interfaces to main network [SOLVED]
Posted: Wed Nov 01, 2023 11:13 am
Hi all!
I successfully added multiple CAPs via CAPsMAN to my "main" home network (192.168.20.0/24). All CAPs are powered by PoE to ether1. In the CAPs under bridge/ports the interfaces wlan1, wlan2 and ether2 are bridged together. This bridge is the only member of the interface list LAN, while ether1 is the only member of the interface list WAN.
Under interfaces the wlan interfaces are managed by CAPsMAN as desired.
The bridge uses its own DHCP server with addresses in the network 192.168.88.0/24.
What I try to reach but don't get managed is how to add ether2 to the "main" home network to add connected devices to the network 192.168.20.0/24. Additionally the CAPs need to be accessible from over ether1 because after removing ether2 from the LAN list any access to the webfig won't work anymore (by firewall).
Can you please help me out here?
Many thanks and best regards!
