Hello, I'm throwing this out there while I continue testing to see if anyone has experience with this type of setup. Pulse Connect Secure version 9.1R5 (build 5459). The requirement is to assign VPN clients the same IP address each time they connect. As far as I know I cannot achieve this on the device without using a DHCP server. I have an ISC DHCP server set up on the network which successfully assigns IPs to VPN clients so I know DHCP works. Now I want to reserve IPs for particulart clients. The PCS connection profile is configured to use the DHCP server and is set according to the admin guide. option number=12, option value=<username><authMethod>, option type=String This works fine. subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 {
range 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.10;
option routers 192.168.0.1;
}
host test {
hardware ethernet 0:0:c0:5d:bd:95;
fixed-address 192.168.1.1;
} This does not. subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 {
range 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.10;
option routers 192.168.0.1;
}
host test {
fixed-address 192.168.1.1;
} Is there a way to assign IPs solely using the username passed in the DHCP packet? The PCS generates a new MAC for each connection so that would not be a reliable way to reserve an IP. Any recommendations?
