      What You say about this?

      If you expect something to work without DHCP, you must use static configuration. Again, there's no reason it has to be mixed in with the DHCP pool. Here, in addition to the DHCP pool and static mappings, I have two devices with static configuration. One is my main desktop system and the other is pfSense.

      PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
      i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
      UniFi AC-Lite access point

      I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

        Say about what - Not sure what your freaking asking.. And what does it have to do with some nonsense .66, .77, .88 plan - I don't care if you have 200 IPs.. So use a /23 and make the first /24 your your devices and the 2nd /24 your dhcp.

        You can come up with whatever you want to come up with - .66, .77, .88, .99 makes no sense.. You will never convince of such nonsense.. I have had to go into a lot of customer networks, never seen such nonsense - and I have seen a lot of nonsense..

        I gave you a way to do what you want be it that plan or whatever - now you say its too much work, well yeah because it makes no sense.. There is zero reason why anyone would do such a thing when I can just say .x-.y is either reservations or static..
