[Dnsmasq-discuss] Requirement to restrict dhcp requests to be served only via a single network interface.

[Vivek Varghese Cherian]

Hi,

My server has 2 Ethernet interfaces, eth0 and eth1.

eth0 is set up in bridged mode to communicate to the outside world.

eth1 serves an internal I.P Address range 192.168.1.x series via dhcp.

I would like to ensure that no dhcp requests are served to the outside
world via
the eth0 interface.

In my /etc/dnsmasq.conf I have set the option as ' interface=eth1.'

Is there anything further I have to do to prevent dhcp requests from being
served
via eth0 ?

Thanks in advance.


Regards,
