Assigning manual IP addresses

Installing and Using OpenWrt Network and Wireless Configuration
1

Hello Community,
Am fairly new to openwrt i set it up as a client for my personal wifi if that makes sense and I connected different virtual machines to it. my hosts are one the 192.168.1.X range and my virtual machines should have 192.168.10.X addresses I couldn't do it even when I go to set static ip address I choose the MAC address of the virtual machine and when I try to give it the ipv4 address it tells me that it's out of any dhcp pool.
I am using a Xiaomi Mi 4C and am sharing internet via my iphone and all of tthis is for setting an architecture for my study
Please be kind am new to this :slight_smile:

192.168.10.X is outside a 192.168.1.X pool range.

  • choosing a larger subnet (not very sensible)
  • different VLANs and subnet routing
  • finding another (~better) way of arranging your IP distribution
