YazDHCP YazDHCP v1.2.0 [2025-Oct-12] - Feature expansion of DHCP assignments (increasing limit on the number of DHCP reservations)

[jksmurf]

Good news.

Ok I don’t use YazFi; IIRC it’s not supported atm? Would you be open to uninstalling it and looking at the outcome? ie simplify it down to YazDHCP?

 

[peepsnet1]

Ok...
Uninstalled YasDHCP 1.2.0...

Rebooted...

AdGuard Home is running again... maybe a side note but worth pointing out...

Now I will try to add a reservation to the default DHCP Server Reservation Table...

And That worked PERFECT!!!!

So the issue is YasDHCP!!

So the issue is YasDHCP!!

Or YazDHCP when coupled with YazFI… so possibly issue is YazFi

Wonder if @CaptainSTX is running YazFi? (separate thread).

Thanks for being willing to test, hopefully @Martinski can have a look to see the interaction between the two.

Not running YazFi

AdGuard Home is now running fine with YasDHCP 1.2.0 not installed...

I had no issues with YasFi 4.4.8 / YasDHCP 1.0.10 / AdGuard Home all installed and running

BTW, Asus implemented importing and exporting of DHCP reservations in 3006.102_40xxx. That's not mainstreamed yet, but I might evaluate if it can be backported.

Nice … but does it do GNP IPs as well, or just the main network?

Nice work in night time I think.
sorry I wasnt there anymore. family calls......

In my case I only have YazDHCP and, YazFi (didnt touched it after I stalling) and Skynet.
Allready uninstalled YazFi but that didnt fixed it.
I dont use Adguard so that isnt the issue.

Would you be willing to to uninstall YazDHCP (after exporting your csv) and try to reinstall with just main plus two test GNP networks?

No biggie if not, was just looking to mirror @peepsnet1's trials.

Darn. Was hoping there was something there...
... and no Manual Assignments via any other method?

Do you see the dnsmasq-x.conf.add files (see example only, below) in /jffs/configs/, with the single line referring to .staticlist_brxx?

I looked in each of the corresponding /jffs/addons/YazDHCP,d/.staticlist, .staticlist_br52 and .staticlist_br53 and the IP entries were all correct in there for me. This seems an odd issue.

I also checked my (i) Network Map, Client List, (ii) System Log, Wireless Log** and (iii) System Log, DHCP leases and my test devices for main, br52 and br53 Guest Networks were all there.

** Noting that while the Network Map shows devices attached to the Primary Router it will not show devices attached to AiMesh Nodes; you need to look either at (a) the Network Map, Client List or at (b) AiMesh, Clients, Wireless, to see them.

Added 3 Reservations.
Main network IP Range: 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.63.254
Guest 1 IP Range: 192.168.65.1 - 192.168.56.254
Guest 2 IP Range: 192.168.66.1 - 192.168.66.254
Guest 3 IP Range: 192.168.67.1 - 192.168.67.254

Reservations I added:
1) I added my PC I am working on right now. Using its MAC address and choose IP 192.168.3.10
2) My Cell Phone: Used its MAC(MAC spoofing is turned off and the phone MAC is always used) and IP 192.168.65.20
3) A Wyze Plug in the house: Used its MAC and the IP 192.168.67.200

@peepsnet1, looking at your screen captures in post #88 and now with what you are posing here, I wonder if how you are structuring your IP subnet ranges are an issue. In post #88 you indicate the following:
LAN > LAN IP > IP Address: 192.168.1.1.
LAN > DHCP Server > Basic Config > IP Pool Starting Address: 192.168.63.100
LAN > DHCP Server > Basic Config > IP Pool Ending Address: 192.168.63.254

Perhaps as a troubleshooting step, set your LAN IP Address and LAN IP Pool Starting Address/Ending Address to be the same subnet range. I.e. either all 192.168.1.x or 192.168.63.x.

You mention a reservation 192.168.3.10 being added. That appears to be outside any the IP subnets you'd defined (192.168.63.100-254, 192.168.65.2-254, 192.168.66.2-254, 192.168.67.2-254). Maybe one problem is assigning addresses that reside outside of the defined established subnets.

Also on a side note it's YazDHCP and YazFi not YasDHCP and YasFi. It's YazDHCP and YazFi with a "z" not an "s".

Also on a side note it's YazDHCP and YazFi not YasDHCP and YasFi. It's YazDHCP and YazFi with a "z" not an "s".

So my IP architecture is like this:
Router IP: 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask. 255.255.192.0
This gives me a range of IPs from: 192.168.0.1 - 63.254

I then assign/reserve IPs to devices based on type...
If it's some kind of server it will be 192.168.1.XXX
If it is a printer it will be 192.168.2.XXX
If it is a personal device like a PC/phone/tablet it gets 192.168.3.XXX
My security system gets 192.168.10.XXX
And so on...
All known devices on my network will have reservations! Or at least as many as possible...

If I allow someone onto my network and I do not have a reservation for the device(something on a guest network) I want it to only exist in a known set of IP addresses so I can catch it in AdGuard Home...

If clients IP range = 192.168.63.XXX or 192.168.65.XXX or 192.168.67.XXX this lets me use AdGuard Home to apply stricter rules to that range of IPs while relaxing rules on other IP ranges like my servers and printers.

I can apply a YouTube ad block list to 192.168.4.XXX because that contains all my TVs/firestick type devices.

and I can block the hell out of all my kids stuff by applying adult content blocking to 192.168.3.50-69(all my kids devices)


i say all this to say...
For my main network:
i want my router to be able to use 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.63.254
i want my DHCP to come from 192.168.63.XXX

For my Guest network:
I want it outside of the ranges above.

and its been working like this for the last 10 years while on ASUS MERLIN firmware.

And I did try setting the DHCP range to 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.63.254 and it didn't change. That was back before I even posted about this issue here and before I recovered from BACKUPMON(Thank God again for this @Viktor Jaep )... But I did try it at one point.

sorry for the long-winded response!

Thnx for helping with this issue.
Via VPN I uninstalled every module except the firewall, then rebooted, installed only YAZDHCP,rebooted importen reservations, rebooted but no change.

I only have a smartphone with me and dont hknow a good WinSCP like app. I hope I can check it later tonight

I'm not sure I am very much help TBH, I am really hoping Martinski can shed some light on it with the details you folks are kindly providing.

No hurry, I am sure we will get there eventually. Appreciate you taking the time to troubleshoot.

LOL I typed that on my phone and that has a dark theme and I didnt see it... I copied some text and it kept the formatting...
Fixed it from my PC!!
LOL Thanks

I don't know. I just spotted the code in the main DHCP page while doing a quick diff to see what had changed globally in the whole GPL, I didn't look any deeper.
