[Dnsmasq-discuss] dnsmasq with hostapd generated vlans?

[Frank Rizzo]

Hey guys.

I'm using hostap on my server to make it an access point. I have all that
up and working, but the connection phase from my tablet hangs at
"Obtaining IP address...".

I have hostap building 3 vlans, (wlan0.100, wlan0.200, and wlan0.300).

I've used the error messages from dnsmasq to point me in the right
direction WRT getting the interfaces set up, but now I've reached the
point where I no longer get any error messages, and it just doesn't work.
My config is simple:

interface=wlan0.100
dhcp-range=interface:wlan0.100,192.168.2.2,192.168.2.254,255.255.255.0,12h
interface=wlan0.200
dhcp-range=interface:wlan0.200,192.168.3.2,192.168.3.254,255.255.255.0,12h
interface=wlan0.300
dhcp-range=interface:wlan0.300,192.168.4.2,192.168.4.254,255.255.255.0,12h

When I launch it, I get the following:

# dnsmasq -qd
dnsmasq: started, version 2.68 cachesize 150
dnsmasq: compile time options: IPv6 GNU-getopt DBus i18n IDN DHCP DHCPv6

dnsmasq: warning: interface wlan0.300 does not currently exist

dnsmasq-dhcp: DHCP, IP range 192.168.2.2 -- 192.168.2.254, lease time 12h
dnsmasq: reading /etc/resolv.conf
dnsmasq: using nameserver 192.168.1.1#53
dnsmasq: read /etc/hosts - 7 addresses


YES, I know that .200, and .300 aren't configured. I'm trying to get
something on .100 to work first. Kinda like the KISS principle.

Do you see anything obviously wrong with this?

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
