    Is it possible to exclude an IP range of 172.31.99.180 and above from the Instant default DHCP Pool

    From playing around with an IAP, there does seem to be a way around it, but it seems a bit odd to do it this way.

     

    1. Click on System--Show Advanced Options and click on DHCP.

    • Select a different range than what is the default 172.31.98.0/23

    2. Click on More--DHCP Server

    • Add an "Other" scope and select the type “Local”
    • Choose a VLAN for this scope
    • Use the 172.31.98.0/23 subnet
    • Exclude 172.31.99.180 (everything above this IP will be excluded)
    • Fill in the other fields as needed

    3. Change the SSIDs to be statically set to this VLAN

    • Edit the SSID and change it from "Virtual Controller Assigned" to "Network Assigned"
    • Select a Static VLAN, and use the VLAN number created for the scope in step 2
