enabled Wan static IP. now have DHCP server added?
-
i am just checking if this is normal. i've never used Pfsense in WAN mode
i recently moved to a static WAN ip address. now under services > dhcp server. there is a wan tab (screenshot) it is not enabled.
is this normal/ expected? or did i enable something on accident somehow?

Yes, the DHCP server can be enabled on any interface with a static IPv4 address. You obviously would not want to enable it on WAN normally though.

That is not a /32 or /31 ;)

Good point!
Any interface with a static IPv4 address in a subnet large enough to have IPs available to lease.
