Solved DHCP range question.

[DJones]

Noticed in my logs some extra dhcp ranges, and I’m not sure what they are associated with. 192.168.1.3 — 192.168.1.254 is correct the rest I have no idea why they are there. Multicast?.. no or VPN server perhaps? I’m not using the vpn server so it shouldn’t be that and usually is within the 10.x.x.x range.

From some brief googling it looks to be from the guest network? Even though it’s not enabled. Yazfi isn’t installed.

Yes it's reserved for the Asus guest networks.

Standard and expected behavior with the Asus firmware. The 192.168.101.x, .102.x and possibly .103.x are used by the Asus firmware; primarily it appears for Guest WiFi. Do a forum search and you'll find a number of past discussions on those IP addresses. Some involve YazFi users who inadvertently try to use those Asus Guest WiFi address ranges which causes problems with YazFi.

That’s how I came across the answer. Just didn’t immediately find a answer until I put those ip ranges in search. (Google in this case) anyways just slight confusion since it wasn’t in use. Makes sense. Thanks for the confirmation.
