      Hello
      I recently had to re-add all my interfaces because i changed the device-type driver from Realtek to E1000
      in pfSense, i am now missing all the DHCP-Server tabs, except the WAN-Tab.
      As you can see, the LAN and LAN_2 interfaces have valid settings (static ip and enabled)
      The DHCP-Server is running on LAN-Interface, although i cannot see any config in pfsense for that dhcp-server.

        Hi,

        You told DHCP Server that it can not offer it's services on LAN.

        Your pfSense LAN IP is 192.168.1.1.

        The network 'size' or mask is set to /32 - which means : 1 IP, the one already taken by pfSense itself.
        This means that no pool can exist for DHCP Server on that LAN network. It's smart enough to not offering you 'any services' : it has no IP(s) to propose to other LAN devices.

        Change /32 to /30, or even better, make that a /24 and DHCP Server will propose you it's services ☺

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??
