/32 DHCP

11-21-2023, 11:49 AM

I'm checking my 4G backup for the fiber line. I received a DHCP /32 from the ISP when I set up the bridge connection to minimize NAT issues. Can this ISP configuration be replicated in another LAN setup? What are the pros and cons of using a /32 subnet?

The question is unclear. Please refine your query for clarity. It seems you're referring to a specific IP address but didn't provide enough details.

I aim to mimic /32 DHCP setup in office networks, as this is widely used alongside PPPoE over L3.

32 is an exact IP address, which wouldn't be practical for several computers in an office unless you're using NAT. If that's your goal, you'd need to: set up the 4G modem as a bridge, install a firewall, link the modem to it, connect the firewall to a switch, and then attach any PCs wanting internet access via 4G to the switch.

Many routers support connecting a USB 4G adapter via a USB port and manage the switch seamlessly.
