So my goal is to have 1 of the plan ports serve dhcp, assign a static IP to the second lan port in a different DHCP range and hopefully have devices talk to each other? What's the simplest way to do this? other?
The access between the two different networks is unrelated to DHCP but is related to the IP address and its subnet mask, or related to the routing table.
For example, A & B can access directly. C & D connot if there is not routing table for them.
IP range A | 192.168.1.0 | 255.255.0.0 | |
IP range B | 192.168.2.0 | 255.255.0.0 | |
IP range C | 192.168.3.0 | 255.255.255.0 | |
IP range D | 192.168.4.0 | 255.255.255.0 | |
