Issues with the GUI - DCHP V4 - Sends back to the dashboard

[Nitrofx]

Not sure if anyone is experiencing this issue with the new version of OPNsense 18.7.2-amd64 that when selecting to add a new static IP in DHCPv4 the GUI jumps back to the Dashboard. Please note that restarting the FW or the plug-in also does not fix the issue.

Not sure if this is a known bug and if there are any logs that I can submit to troubleshoot the issue. Please advise. Thanks.

Fine here, just added a new one, no issues. Is this the only area you are seeing and issues?

FWIW, I'm removing the add button on leases where the interface is empty which likely causes this...

... but it raises questions as to how the box was setup to cause this....

Thank you kindly for your responses, The issue was intermittent at times the button just worked at other times it didn't. it was hard to find a cause for the issue. I think that removing the feature will do more harm than good.  I t may have been an isolated issue on my system

If by "feature" you mean "removing the button when it does not work and redirect" then yes.

If by "feature" you mean "removing the lease add button altogether" then no.

In the first case I don't understand your reaction, in the second case nothing changes. Don't panic.

Hi Franco,

thank you for your response, I have downloaded the new version of the firmware OPNsense 18.7.4-amd64 and noticed that the button for adding and removing leases from the Services: DHCPv4: Leases page, has been removed.

even tough the button sometimes would fail to add clients and redirected to the dashboard, Having the ability to manually delete dynamic assignments was very important specially when you have a limited dynamic scope of IP addresses for your  network. from an admin perspective that "feature" or ability to on demand manage your DHCP scope was very useful as it allowed you to add a static assignment on the fly or delete as necessary.

I would love for that button to make a comeback . Thanks.

I understand. It's a feature-bug, meaning a feature was added but missed this particular spot to make it aware of the feature.

If someone beats me to a fix that'd be great. Help and review included.
