Not possible to set static IPs in VLAN (network with different subnet)?

Hi,

So: when I setup a GNP, and have it on a different VLAN (52), can I not set static IPs for certain clients? When I go to the LAN setings and DHCP, I see my device in the client list. When I select it, I see its IP (192.168.52.101). But when I try to set it as static, it says it’s not valid…

Is it not possible? Or do I need a plugin or something?
 
See YazDHCP which now supports Guest Network Pro manual IP addresses when one has set Guest Network Pro's Use same subnet as main network to off:

If not using YazDHCP, one could use the Guest Network Pro Profile's Advanced Setting section Manually assign IP address around the DHCP list option to set manual reservations.

Otherwise, use the forum search feature to find the various past discussions on using the dnsmasq-INDEX.conf.add or dnsmasq-sdn.postconf to set a Guest Network Pro's manual IP reservation. For example, one such past post on using dnsmasq-INDEX.conf.add to set Guest Network Pro reservations:
https://www.snbforums.com/threads/a...-4-is-now-available.94651/page-26#post-958305

It is expected behavior that when Guest Network Pro's Use same subnet as main network is disabled (set to off) one cannot normally (without using YazDHCP) set Guest Network Pro client reservations through the LAN > DHCP Server section.

If you are running a router with Guest Network Pro you can assign static IPs within a subnet under advanced settings directly using the GUI.
 
You do not set client static IP's at the router. You set reserved IP's. Static IP addresses are set at the client and the client disregards DHCP.
There is a difference!
