Assign different DHCP ranges depending on MAC address / vendor code?

gthornock

Is it possible in pfSense to assign DHCP addresses from different ranges depending on MAC address / vendor code?

As an example of what I mean, if I were doing this in a recent ISC DHCP server, the relevant sections of dhcpd.conf would go something like this:

class "polycom" {
  match if substring (binary-to-ascii (16, 8, ":", hardware), 2, 6) = "0:4:f2";
}

shared-network internal {
  subnet 10.67.0.0 netmask 255.255.240.0 {

    # Polycom Phones
    pool {
      range 10.67.12.50 10.67.12.200;
      allow members of "polycom";
    }

    # Everyone else
    pool {
      range 10.67.0.50 10.67.1.200;
      deny members of "polycom";
    }

  }
}

hmmm no answers? I am interested in this as well.

Sounds like a feature request for >2.0
IIRC, the DHCP server is still ISC, so it might just be a matter of adding the option to the GUI.

There is already a similar enhancement request in redmine for "future" - it should be possible, though generally if you have separate subnets they are on separate interfaces so doing exactly what you propose isn't necessary.
