RV180 DHCP Relay

Hi,

 

Apologies if Im posting in the wrong place, but Im after some help.

 

What Im trying to do, is this:

 

Internet connection - Home Router (For normal household internet) - RV180

 

RV180:

2 VLANs (1 and 10) - One of which to provide IP's for my home lab (DC, ESXi server)

The other to "relay" DHCP addresses from the Home router to 2 devices (NAS box and a PC)

 

VLan 1 is set to DHCP Relay

VLan 10 is set to DHCP Server,  configured to give out IP's in the 192.168.10.* range

 

The Home router is running OpenWRT if that makes any difference

 

Is it possible to get DHCP traffic over the WAN port to pass through to VLAN 1?

 

Thanks,

 

DMO

Hello, 

 

"Is it possible to get DHCP traffic over the WAN port to pass through to VLAN 1?"

 

No - since vlan10 and vlan1 are directly connected - and the TCP/IP RfC does not allow this - the router MUST forward the traffic over the directly connected interface.
