Limitation when adding VLANS

[andremagreen]

Can anybody tell me if smoothwall has a limit on adding interfaces. I have 4 VLAN interface and added another configured with an IP address and the interface did not show up in the DHCP. So with that issue i am wondering if there is a limit.

Awaiting your response.

We are doing a trust smoothwall deployment atm and I recall atleast 5 virtual interfaces showing I am pretty sure, does the interface have a static ip thats enabled? it wont show with dhcp/ip disabled pretty sure… tried rebooting too?

I had created 5 VLAN interfaces with IP Address and only 4 showed on DCHP Global including the Internal interface. And only three worked properly. One was my Staff VLAN account and when properly configured staff had issues connecting or if they connected not internet. So i had to delete that interface and use one out of the 4 and now everybody connects.

So i think that something is off or there is a limit. My infrastructure works with UnifI and NPS.

I am now wondering if that was one of the reasons why the Engineer was encouraging me to use Windows DHCP server a couple weeks ago.

There are still a few odd wrinkles with DHCP (it only sees certain interfaces.... various legacy bits in the DHCP module cause this, we are working to fix it) support are able to resolve it manually if you put in a ticket.

Thanks for that info. Also when will the fix for DHCP Server it tell wrong date and time issued of IP address this has been an issue for YEARS.
