an odd setup i have to say from the start. something i've never done.

currently the way i have it is like this:

Smoothwall gateway:
RED interface: public ip
GREEN interface: 192.168.0.0/24

connected to that is the RB433ah
ether1: 192.168.0.3
ether2 (hotspot): 10.5.50.1
ether3 not used

all works great.

so what i want to do is this: setup up the rb433ah to be a hotspot system ONLY.
all clients who connect should get an ip from the smoothwall box
that way using smoothwall i can monitor web surfing activity, setup dgav, and other things.

i've tried disabling the dhcp server on the rb433ah and adding a dhcp relay to 192.168.0.1--- i see the requests but they never get answered.
when i check the smoothwall dhcp server log it prints out the following: unknown network segment
i googled the term and really couldnt find an answer.

is what i am trying to do "doable"?
if so how?

thank you!

It might work, but you will be surprised at the results!
The IP addresses coming out of the hotspot interface will be that of the hotspot range. It does a one-to-one nat on any address outside its netmask to an IP inside from its ip pool.
So even if you issue the IP you want, it won't come out of the hotspot that way. Sorry.

actually it doesnt work.

in the ip->dhcp relay-> status tab i see the requests but 0 responses so it never worked.
