Dhcp lease

Hi everybody this is my first post I know some thinks about mikrotik but I bump in a problem

I setup my dhcp server , ip , and everything else..

When I conect let’s say to network 10.0.10.0/24
It gives me lease upside down. 10.0.10.254 10.0.10.253 and so on why???

What is the problem? :wink:

Dhcp doesn’t start from 1 2 and so on

Starts from 254 253 252 251 amd lower why???

Becouse that is an algorithm :slight_smile:

in essence it is not stated in RFC how exactly addresses should be given out by DHCP server. In RouterOS addresses are given out in descending order. Easiest way on how to force it to do stuff differently is to use static leases. But dynamic ones will still be given out from the “end of the pool”
