I´m newbie with kamikaze and need litle help. I want to set dhcp-range in dnsmasq.conf. How can I disable /etc/init.d/dnsmasq -script setting dhcp-range...?

thanks Jones

Kamikaze does not use /etc/dnsmasq.conf. Kamikaze uses a UCI configuration file for dnsmasq. The UCI configuration file for dnsmasq is /etc/config/dhcp.

The DHCP range is specified with two options. The options are: start and limit

uci set dhcp.cfg2.start=100
uci set dhcp.cfg2.limit=150
uci commit dhcp
/etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart

Sets the DHCP range from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.250

Yeap, I know that Kamikaze use UCI-configuration files...
My problem is this; My routers ip is 10.0.0.1 and my dhcp-range should be 10.0.2.1-10.0.2.50

Could I just comment out line from the script which set dhcp-range as command line argument?

append args "--dhcp-range=$name,$START,$END,$NETMASK,$leasetime${options:+ $options}"

ok , why?

i'm assuming your on a /16 subnet .. why couldnt you just make the dhcp do 10.0.0.100-150 OR make the router 10.0.2.1 ?

ok .. so maby you need this , how about spliting the switch into 2 vlans ? ( where you have vlan0 vlan1 and vlan2 )  then you can tell dnsmasq.conf what lan to assign addresses to.

hmm .. if you treated it as a class b network .. could you tell dnsmasq to start and end your addresses as 513-612 ( 2.1 - 2.100 ) ??   or will dns masq crap out with that

edit : bad math
