AP7532 - Staging MU

[Phil_storey]

Hi
I want to setup a DHCP server on an AP7532 and deploy it to just 1 wifi network in a production area for MU's

So the AP will have a static IP address which is on an ADSL router, but I would like the DHCP server on the AP to be in a different range provided by the AP ( wlan DHCP )

example :

Wifi clients get a 10.10.10.x / 24

the default GW needs to map to a 192.168.x.x/24

I can do this in two way either on the RFS7k and pipe the new wlan out on the same vlan as the adsl router then assign the DHCP server to the wlan, or set it as a stand alone AP connected to the ADSL router

The bit I'm not sure about ( apart from most of it ) if I set the wifi DHCP to the 10.x.x.x/24 range is there a way for the clients to get a GW of 10.10.10.254 - but the the real GW is 192.168.x.x

Not sure if this makes any sense, I sure there will be a guide somewhere

Hi
the router is nothing special, The AP would be connected to the router directly.

If I do it via the RFS7k then the wlan would be mapped to a vlan, but i dont want to mess with two other wlans that use the same vlan

Hi,

Not sure if this will help much, but this is what I have home. Environment is quite similar, there is a router/DG with whatever IP address range assigned and serving DHCP to any device connected there. AP is connected on GE1 to it having vlan 1 with IP assigned by the router through DHCP. Then I have different vlans mapped for different WLANs, with the AP running as a DHCP server for those vlans. The magic behind all working is, natting through VLAN 1 out all the vlans I have mapped, giving different DG for each vlan. Easy to configure and works like a charm.
