DHCP issue after bridging an interface
-
I run two internal interfaces, my LAN (x.x.0.1) and the WIFI (x.x.2.1). Both had their seperate DHCP setting and static assignments. I had some issues with moving computers around here, so for a temporary solution, bridging the WIFI network to the LAN would solve the issue. Once WIFI was bridged, the WIFI tab in the DHCP server screen was gone, not a big deal, it makes sense to be gone.
The problem is once I bridged WIFI, all the devices on the LAN and WIFI interfaces are being assigned an old WIFI IP address (x.x.2.x), gateway, dns, etc. I had to unbridge the WIFI interface, disable WIFI DHCP and rebridge WIFI to LAN to solve the issue.
What I'm trying to get at is would it be a good idea to automatically disable the DHCP server on the interface once it becomes bridged?
