Hi,
I have a central openwrt router on which I configured a LAN network, a DMZ and
a DHCP server. The DHCP server serves clients from both networks with different
IP ranges.
To this router I have connected a few wireless access points (also running
openwrt) where I want to configure two different wifi networks:
1st network: Clients connecting to this network should receive an IP
address from the LAN address range and have full access to LAN, DMZ and
Internet.
2nd network: Clients connecting to this network should receive either an
IP address from a complete new address range, or one of the DMZ range.
But the address should also be given from the central DHCP server.
Clients should not have access to the LAN zone.
The first network is not a problem. I also have no problem with the
firewall settings. My Problem is that I don't know how to setup the
second network and the central DHCP server. Somehow the DHCP server has
to know to which wifi a client is connected to.
Is this even possible without activating DHCP servers on each access
point? I like the idea of only one central server where I can configure
my static leases and see all the IPs used.
Can I set this up using VLAN tags? Or am I thinking to complicated and it
is a lot easier? Or is it impossible?
As hardware I am using an APU board as central router/DHCP server. Three
TP-Link 1750 Archer C7 boards are used as access points, all installed with the
latest version of Chaos Calmer.
Any help would be appreciated.
