Hi I recently switched over to OpenWRT 19.07.0-rc2 from Tomato. In Tomato web interface there's a way to limit the DHCP address range. I cannot find anything similar in the LuCI web interface. I have various addresses in Virtual Machines that are statically assigned and I don't want the DHCP server giving out those addresses, so I need to limit the range to .100 - .149 if it does not do that already.
Also I want to disable IPv6. I found directions in this forum several days ago that suggested:
However despite that I still have a WAN6 with an IPv6 address and I am seeing these two DHCP errors continually in the log:
Sat Nov 30 16:23:53 2019 daemon.err odhcpd[846]: Failed to send to ff02::1%lan@br-lan (Permission denied)
Sat Nov 30 16:25:26 2019 daemon.err odhcp6c[1105]: Failed to send DHCPV6 message to ff02::1:2 (Permission denied)
Short of creating a special build with IPv6 disabled how can I shut it off? Thanks
You can just delete the wan6 interface, untick boxes for IPv6, disable IP6ASSIGNMENTS, disable RAs and DHCP6D. However full removal of IPv6 is not a supported configuration.
LAN > Advanced > UNCHECK: Use IPv6-management
LAN > DHCP > General > Start > 100
LAN > DHCP > General > Limit > 50 (Log confirms this sets the range to 100-149)
LAN > DHCP > IPv6 > Disable everything
WAN > Advanced > UNCHECK: Use IPv6-management
WAN6 > Delete
During the first two minutes of startup there's still IPv6 messages from the router (multicast listener and router solicitation) but after that nothing which for my purposes is fine.
