Guys,
I've been using the FBSD firewall pfSense since last January
without fully understanding it. Now I'm getting some clues as to
one *possibility* why my new laptop may not be working. --It is
more probably a hardware fauly, but maybe somebody can clue me in
How both my wife and my daughter and I (with my new ThinkPad G41)
were given IP's _within_ the "Range" that was set up.
My private IP's are listed as
10.47.0.0 -- 10.47.0.255
and my Range is listed as
10.47.0.101 to 10.47.0.120. The "Range" is described on one
site:
You will need to set the Range of the DHCP server which
will regulate how many IP addresses you will give out.
My wife's Dell XP has 10.47.0.119; daughter's Macbook is
10.47.0.115; and when I clicked around and made my daughter's
computer IP "static", pfSense gave me an error. It said that
it was incorrectly within the "Range". How can I change/edit it
so that it is outside the range? I would like everything
possible to be set in concrete. Will pfSense pick an IP outside
the range?
tia,
gary
