Vyos Configure DHCP Server

DustinB3403

Below are the errors I'm receiving when I attempt to commit these changes, being this is the first time I've setup VyOS (or any router from the ground up guidance is appreciated)

commit
[ service dhcp-server ]
No DHCP address range or active static-mapping set
for subnet 10.200.1.0/24!

[[service dhcp-server]] failed
[ service dns forwarding ]
Error: DNS forwarding requires a listen-address

I'm not free enough right now to spin up a VyOS VM to re-familiarize myself, but perhaps something was left out when you were entering your set service dhcp-server commands.

@EddieJennings his second error is related to DNS.

This is a working DNS setup.

set service dns forwarding cache-size 150
set service dns forwarding listen-on eth7
set service dns forwarding listen-on eth7.2
set service dns forwarding name-server 1.1.1.1
set service dns forwarding name-server 8.8.8.8
set service dns forwarding options server=/domain.local/10.202.0.21
set service dns forwarding options server=/domain/10.202.0.21

Your DHCP error is likely a typo someplace.

I'm not sure how much VyOS and EdgeOS have diverged, but here is my DHCP setup at home.

Correct. I gambled from his title the immediate interest was DHCP. I lost.
