Hi,
I'm setting up a dual (load balanced) ISP configuration.
I'm using the Ubiquiti Edge Router X SFP for that purpose.
This is the schema (nothing complicated)
I just have one question that maybe someone can help me with: I'm using the EdgeRouter in "Dual WAN Load-Balance" mode and I have chosen to dedicate ETH0 to ISP2 and ETH1 to ISP1, the rest of the ports are in switch mode on the 192.168.1.1/24 network with DHCP.
So the question is, since I have chosen to use the WAN ports in DHCP on the EdgeRouter does it matter if I leave the DHCP server active in the ISP1 and ISP2 routers?
I don't understand (from the guide) if there is the need to have the IP on ETH0 and ETH1 static or it can be assigned by the DHCP of the ISP router?
Also is not 100% clear to me what DHCP means in the EdgeRouter config: is this referred to the public IP or the private network IP of the port? My guess is that it's referred to the external one...
