Title: Message

I agree with this change but im in the same boat I use 0.x for my smartbridges but I make sure I don't let clients use this for there networks I tell them to use 1.x or something similar. I know IP conflicts with the sb's have caused problems before I believe. Another reason I think vlan support should be implemented on the new ap's.

I think that you should not be using 192.168.0.x.  Pick something else like 10.5.20.x

The DHCP is providing public addresses, not 192.168.0.x addresses - it's working well but has thrown me a curve by giving one of my radios a public address - but that was before I started using simpleDeploy to insure that the radio doesn't ask for an address when it's reset.

 

So, you agree that allowing customers to use 192.168.0.x addresses is not a good idea?

If I were you, I wouldn't be running DHCP on the 192.168.0.x subnet.  That is a typical "default" subnet..and I don't do ANYTHING by default.

 

You don't want your client on the same subnet...that is for sure.

Subject: [smartBridges] LAN side IP Addresses

 

I have all my sB wireless devices set up with 192.168.0.x addresses. All clients connected to the wireless network either have static public addresses assigned or use DHCP to obtain a public address.

 

I have instructed my customers that use a DSL/Cable router to connect a network, not to use 192.168.0.x on the LAN side of their router.

 

Now I have a customer that insists he must use 192.168.0.x on his LAN (I won't go into his reasoning)

 

If I allow him to use this sub-net on his LAN, my concern is that some fat-fingered IT person will inadvertently (or intentionally) turn off NAT on his DSL/Cable router and flood my wireless network with a bunch of duplicate 192.168.0.x addresses that may bring down my wireless network.

 

Is this a valid concern on my part? Any voice of experience will be appreciated.
