Multiple DHCP Servers on single Mikrotik

3 Comments Posted by on January 4, 2013

mikrotikScenario:

Mikrotik dhcp server with 3 network cards (LAN,Wireless,WAN), WAN is connected to Internet, Wireless is connected to the 10.10.10.0/24 subnet and serve as dhcp server  while LAN interface serve for 172.16.10.0/24 subnet.

Connect to the Mikrotik RouterOS using winbox/ssh and check the ip address(es) of the interfaces:

ip address print

0

Issue this command, in order to configure the dhcp server for LAN subnet:

ip dhcp-server setup

1

Issue the same command for the dhcp server configuration on Wireless interface:

ip dhcp-server setup

2

Now, check the ip setting of the client(s) machines on both subnets:

ipconfig /all

4

5

Also confirm the dhcp leases on Mikrotik:

IP -> DHCP Server -> Leases

3

Hope this will help you!

Please Remember me in your prayers!

    … and the interface must be “up” (there must be a link).

    I tried but did not knew that the interface must be “up”. shure, an interface which is “down” can not assign/distribute ip addresses …

    Thanks for sharing!
