[Dnsmasq-discuss] DHCP assignment with dynamic VLANs

[Michael Rack]

Hi Andrea,

that is not possible with DNSMASQ. Thats is as by software design.

If a request receives on the br-lan interface, DNSMASQ will serve only 
IP-Ranges that matches that interface.

If you find a other DHCP-Software that does what you want, let me know :)

Liebe Grüße aus Freilassing,
