AXE75 IP Address Reservation

2023-10-11 19:09:35

Model: Archer AXE75

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.1.8 Build 20230718 rel.47014(5553)

Just got a new AXE75 and am finishing setup. This is replacing an AX50. On the AX50, I had Address Reservations OUTSIDE the DHCP address pool. On this AXE75, I'm finding that I cannot do that?? Just chatted with Tech Support and they verified it isnt possible. Does this all sound correct? I find it questionable that this can be right.

I need certain devices to always have the same IP address. Any input?

Thanks

@danweis1

my reserved addresses are inside the pool and I have had no issues.

@ArcherC8 well after actually talking to tech support, they said the same. I guess there's nothing wrong with doing it this way.
I did find a work around however. If I set the DHCP pool to include all addresses (let's say x.x.x.2 to x.x.x.249), then add the reserved Mac/IP addresses, then reset the address pool back to something like x.x.x.50 to x.x.x.249, it's ok with that. Maybe I'm old school, but I prefer it this way.

Thanks
