General Discussion / Re: Reserve same IP for 2 Wi-Fi interfaces
« on: January 19, 2023, 12:30:02 am »
Thanks to all for your time and suggestions.
The "answer" is here https://serverfault.com/questions/578796/how-can-i-set-one-hostname-and-ip-for-multiple-macs-in-dhcpd-isc-dhcpd-4-1-1-p1
However I think it unwise to edit /var/dhcpd/etc/dhcpd.conf outside of the OPNsense GUI so I've manually set the address for both interfaces in NetworkManager on the laptop.
This does NOT solve the related issue of having a device connect through either an AP or an extender to it so I'd still like to see the devs make this possible through the GUI so I'm creating a feature request on github... https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/6252
