DHCPd with multiple ipv4 subnets outside of local interface network. (300US$)

bennyc

Hi Marcelloc,

I know it's already been a while, but I think I encountered a couple of things we missed.
Sub-pools work fine… but when adding a static mapping for a client in a sub-pool, it does not hand out WINS/DNS: not the default, not the ones I put there. (not so good ::) )
It also doesn't complain if I use an ip within the pool range? (can live with that)
When removing the static mapping (but leaving it in the sub-pool), the dhcp deamon hands out both fine.

So the issue is on the static mapping creation. (writing to the dhcpd.conf to be more precise, at least I think it is)

When looking to the dhcpd.conf, it gets written correctly except for the option "domain-name-server", that part is missing even if I update it in the static mapping (it does not add it to the part "host s_lan_0":

(partial code)


host s_lan_0 {
	hardware ethernet 00:50:56:ad:6f:c1;
	fixed-address 192.168.9.11;
	option host-name "REMOTE-7";
	option routers 192.168.9.254;
}
subnet 192.168.9.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
	pool {
		option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.254;
		option routers 192.168.9.254;
		range 192.168.9.1 192.168.9.10;
	}

Went through the code from services_dhcp.php (quickly) as I suspect the issue is there (might be wrong), but it seems my coding knowledge is still too limited, can't point it out yet :-[

Can you still check this please?

tnx & br, Benny.

Sorry for the late response.
I'm really busy these days but I'll take a look as soon as possible.

Hi All,

I would like to implement this solution to my FW running an updated version 2.1.1.(32bit)

What I did: I copied the files from Github " https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/816" and overwrote the ones on my system but then rebooted the FW and nothing worked.

How did you guys get it to work?

Thank you.

bennyc

By paying marcelloc ;D

No seriously, you should. Get in contact with him, contribute. This bounty was never completed because some people did not pay, even though his solution works.
I have it working on 2.1 since beginning of bounty, stable, and serving addresses for 6 scopes. Currently porting from 2.1 -> 2.1.2, and on my 2.1.2 test system it's already working again with his mods. So it should work for your 2.1.1 also…

Otherwise you need to be patient, his work has been polled/merged for 2.2.

madstupid

I wish I could contribute but my situation is not good ATM. Can anyone help before v2.2 is released?

Thanks in advance.

bennyc

If you get a -posted here- agreement from Marcelloc (pm him, that's a "condicio sine qua non"), I'm willing to guide you through (invest my time in you).
Until publicly released/included in 2.2, the work is his…

(sorry, this sounds only fair to me)

-edit: removed typo-

marcelloc

sure bennyc, you paid for this code.

btw, i'll have to code it again and send for the third time the pull request…

bennyc

Yes, but technically the bounty is not complete ::)
And I do respect your work -as it should-, so I thought it was only fair we got your approval for this ;)
That being said, I sure hope you get that pull request working. (otherwise I would need to implement the feature manually each upgrade :( Not an impossible task, but would like to avoid that if possible)
If you ever should need help for testing this feature again, do not hesitate to contact me…

@madstupid, I will pm you the instructions I got from Marcelloc.

How much of the bounty is still outstanding? I'd like to kick some funds.

Hi Everyone!

I'll gladly chip in $100 so I can turn off that old windows server that's only acting as DHCP for all subnets.

marcelloc, do I just use your paypal donation links?

I'm on 2.1.3

Thanks!

marcelloc

Yes. Send to my PayPal account.

I'm wondering what is the status of getting this into the next version of pfsense. I'd gladly send money ($100US seems to be the going rate, am I correct?) to marcelloc for the work done, but I would like to get a warm fuzzy that I'm not going to be stuck on 2.1.x when upcoming releases are made because I'm depending on this.

@marcelloc, if 2.2 comes out and it doesn't support this feature yet, do you plan on maintaining/updating the patch set to work on the newer version?

I'm currently on 2.1.4
Thanks!

Mtisza, I'll check the code and try to push it to 2.2

Thanks for your donation.
