[Dnsmasq-discuss] Max. limit for DHCP ranges

[Sivabalakrishnan M]

Hi,

I understand the maximum number of leases (or dhcp clients) supported is
1000 by default.

Could you please let me know the maximum number of DHCP ranges that the
user can configure? Is it also 1000? Please let me know.

Thanks,
Siva

There's no hard limit on the number of DHCP ranges. It's expected to
be a smallish number, just by the nature of things, and it's not been
coded, or tested for very large numbers, but there's nothing stopping
you from defining a large number of ranges, and discovering how well
it works.


Cheers,

Simon.
