increase dhcp scope on RB433
Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2014 2:06 am
Hello,
I have an RB433 that currently has a scope of about 252 addresses. I need to increase this scope, unfortunately the subnet is a /24 and I cannot just add more addresses to the scope. The layout is that eth1 is the internet connection with a static public ip address. eth2 and eth3 are used for switch connection and I have a wlan setup as well, all three of these ports are on the same bridge and all are getting ip addresses from the same pool. The bridge also has a static private ip address. To increase this pool, should I give the bridge a second ip address and then create another dhcp server based upon that or should i just add another dhcp pool on another /24 and make it a next pool from the primary. Thanks for any help.
