====== Multiple DHCP-Server instances ====== It ist possible to run multiple instances of the dhcp server listening on different interfaces. ===== Overview ===== ==== Level of difficulty === Easy ==== Related topics ==== * [[documentation:configuration:uci]] * [[documentation:configuration:config_files:config_dhcp|/etc/config/dhcp]] ===== Instructions ===== ==== GUI ==== Not available, yet ==== UCI Config System ==== * __**Add DHCP instance for guest-interface**__ <code> uci delete dhcp.guest uci set dhcp.guest=dhcp uci set dhcp.guest.interface=guest uci set dhcp.guest.start=62 uci set dhcp.guest.limit=192 uci set dhcp.guest.leasetime=600h </code> * __**Store changes**__ <code> uci commit </code> ==== UCI config files ==== The 'dhcp' options are stored in [[documentation:configuration:config_files:config_dhcp|/etc/config/dhcp]]. Look there for a full list of available section-options. An additional instance could look like this: <code> config 'dhcp' 'lan' option 'interface' 'guest' option 'start' '62' option 'limit' '192' option 'leasetime' '600h' </code> ==== Apply configuration changes ==== To activate your config changes, the service needs to be restarted. Rebooting is not necessary: <code> /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart </code> ===== Troubleshooting ===== Not available, yet
