More than one DHCP pool with Aruba Instant 6.2.1.0-3.3.02

  • 1.  More than one DHCP pool with Aruba Instant 6.2.1.0-3.3.02

    Posted Aug 19, 2013 02:22 PM

     

    I have an IAP 93 running 6.2.1.0-3.3.02 and I would like to set it up as a DHCP server.

     

    I know I can set up the main DHCP Server pool on System > DHCP

    But I would like one SSID to be assigned a range of IP address, and another one a different range. For example:

     

    - SSID 1 should use DHCP Scope 10.103.1.0/24

    - SSID 2 should use DHCP Scope 10.103.2.0/24

     

     

    I've tried using the More > DHCP Server and tried creating both Distributed Layer 3 and Other modes, assigning the pool to a vlan and then selecting the vlan on the SSID configuration, but I haven't been successful,

    What would be the procedure for setting up more than one DHCP pool and then assigning it to an SSID?

    That is not suported.  The More --> DHCP settings have to do with IAP + VPN functionality.  You are limited to one scope and that scope is ONLY assigned to SSIDs set to "Virtual Controller Assigned" for IP addressing in the VLAN tab settings.

     

    I recommend an external DHCP server for your scenario.  An Aruba switch (with a ton of IAP integration like auto VLAN config and Rogue AP Wired correlation) can also function as a DHCP server.

    Thanks Seth! We are going to use an external DHCP server instead.

    by defining a LOCAL scope under DHCP servers, you can now specific a specific block if addresses to assing on a per SSID basis. Note that your VLAN assignment needs to be NETWORK when establishing the SSID parametres.

    Put up a simple IAP Guest Network to denote that we can define local DHCP pools, have the VC assign them and tag to the SSID in question.

     

    wlan ssid-profile IAP-Guest

    enable

    index 0

    type guest

    essid IAP-Guest

    opmode opensystem

    max-authentication-failures 0

    vlan 15,16

    auth-server InternalServer

    rf-band all

    captive-portal internal

    dtim-period 1

    inactivity-timeout 1000

    broadcast-filter none

    dmo-channel-utilization-threshold 90

    local-probe-req-thresh 0

    max-clients-threshold 64

     

     

    ip dhcp IAP-Pool

    server-type Local

    server-vlan 15

    subnet 192.168.15.0

    subnet-mask 255.255.255.0

     

    ip dhcp IAP-Pool2

    server-type Local

    server-vlan 16

    subnet 192.168.16.0

    subnet-mask 255.255.255.0

    What is the maximum dhcp scope supported?

    Is it 512 addresses on IAP? (Y/N) ___
