DHCP scope applied or not?
-
I just built a new pfSense box using the following process (documented as I build it)
I specified the DHCP range from the console, when I setup the LAN interface. At that time, I limited it to .100 to .200. Plugging in my macbook, indeed I do get an IP of .100. yet looking in the web configuration tool GUI, it indicates the range is .10 to .245.I am confused how this could be…
I built it using this process.

perhaps a screen shot would work better. Could be available rang, but that is generally the entire class-c subnet.

Here is what I have under services DHCP server

Well I am not sure if it was a bug or not. I am positive that I entered the range correctly at the start, and it is not what I see in the picture. In any case I have since redone the range via the GUI and it shows correctly in the GUI now.
