JetStream switches and DHCP server
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello community,
Can anybody tell me which JetStream switch has dhcp server capabilities?
I'm looking for a simple wi-fi solution for an SMB that need be cloud controlled ( i.e. Omada). I need a solution for a DHCP server and if somebody knows if any of Jetstream switches do have such a capability? I'm particularly interested in TL-SG3210XHP-M2 switch.
Thank you

Hi @fw190,
It would be great if you can take some time to read the following links to understand several terms:
2. How to setup Switch as DHCP server on Omada SDN Controller
3. How to configure switch as DHCP server on Standalone mode
By your request, you need a WIFI solution and I suppose that you need to make them have Internet access. A simple DHCP server-supported switch is not enough for Internet access. You have to make sure that your router can help you NAT(translate) these IP addresses. This means you have to make sure that your router support multi-net NAT.
On the Omada routers, you don't have to worry anymore. On the Omada router, multi-nets NAT is supported by default. You don't have to set it up like the first link I attached above. If you are using a non-omada router, then you have to follow the basic config from the first link.
The rest of the articles are simply showing you how to set up the VLAN as well as the DHCP. This does not provide Internet access instead it is simply playing the role of a DHCP server. Not a NAT or gateway.
In the end, if you look for an integrated setup with Omada, I recommend a read of this How to Configure Multi-Networks & Multi-SSIDs on Omada SDN Controller

Hi @fw190
Just in case you miss something. That's why I explained a lot there.
Straight to the point, yes. L2+ and L3 switches are built with the DHCP server function. L2 models are not. Make sure you refer to the specs when you check the product specs.
It is Omada compatible as well.SDN switches
Not all switches we have support Omada SDN. Make sure you check the link above. That's the Omada switch list.
