I think, the correct dhcpd.conf settings is:

#Genere Settings

#Disallow rogue DHCP server (see above)
authoritative;
# Definition of the first (only) subnet
subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.2.10 192.168.2.40;
interface eth4;
#Lease time in seconds (default: default 43200, max 86500)
default-lease-time 3600;
max-lease-time 7200;
option domain-name “ubuntuusers.home”;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.2.1;
option broadcast-address 192.168.2.255;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option routers 192.168.2.1;
}

Hi @falcothethore, thanks for taking the time to leave us a comment :slight_smile:

I don’t quite understand if you’re suggesting an improvement we could make to the minimal dhcpd.conf that we provided in the documentation, or if you are asking for help with the custom configuration you’re using. Please could you clarify? Many thanks! :slight_smile:
