DHCP Issue with Static Mappings

BobbyDigital

I have a question regarding DHCP and static mappings. 

If have a static address for my DHCP on lets say eth1 which is a wireless network and I do not have a static on eth2 which is a separate wireless guest network. 

Will sophos not allow the laptop to connect to eth2 because the MAC address is associated with eth1? Furthermore, is the static mappings tied to both MAC address and hostname?

I'm asking because my wireless will not connect to the guest network unless I remove the static mapping on the primary wireless network eth1.

    I had problems with wifi last week, still not sure about it but some clients started getting a ip address after this tip from one of the XG experts posted on my thread...

     

    I was trying to get some clients get a ip from a dhcp server that the xg know nothing about...

     

    XG will assign and keep the mac address only to the same dhcp scope it released the IP the first time.

    To change this behaviour, change the dhcp option from console:

    system dhcp static-entry-scope global

    and see if now devices are able to get the proper IP.

    So if cisco router 10.141.12.86 handles all the nats

    then by entering 172.16.176.0/21 as a alias to Port 1 (Lan)

    then this user rule should let the firewall know to let the NATs work right?
