Where can we see what the DHCP pool IP address range is? Need to verify the starting and ending IP addresses.
Hi! See my question and response from a couple days ago about switching subnets. Is in the same vlan settings.
I did see that but I still cannot find where to see the starting and ending IP addresses. In your screenshots on that post, it shows 100 IP addresses with a gateway of 192.168.5.1 with 100 reserved IP’s and 100 in the DHCP pool. Where does the DHCP pool start and end. Is it 192.168.5.2-101 or is it 192.168.5.102-203?
In that example it would start at 192.168.5.2 and end at 192.168.5.100
On a /24 it would default to 10 reserved and 243 for pool size.
I always start my DHCP range at either .50 or .100. How do we go about configuring Route10 to accomplish that?
If you set a /24 network and leave reserved field blank, it will start at .10 to .254
If you set reserved field to 20, range will be .20 to .254
On your case, if you want to start at .50, set reserve to 50.
You can still use the IPs in the reserve range if you set static ips for devices.
The Alta team confirmed you are correct erpn7. Thank you for clarifying.
I just learned this how this all works, its VERY VERY strange how Altalabs setup the DHCP server range thing, I have never seen it done this way at all.
The rest of the world / routers make it so you can start and finish It where ever you want it to. Strange for sure.
We are always open to feature requests. User interfaces are a very iterative process and the first step to improving it is knowing that the users have an issue we can solve.

How about this ? https://youtu.be/Ok95v_yG9TM
I normally set my DHCP Pool .20-.199. How do I accomplish this with Alta?
Set the “Reserved IPs” to 20 and I believe set the “Pool Size” to 179.
