My current setup has my DHCP + DNS on my Unifi USG. However, as I have all my apps hosted on a different server (unifi, plex, home assistant, NAS, etc.) I’ve ran into issues trying to get things set up.
Basically, Unifi needs to know where the unifi server is, but it’s assigning the IP address to it.
Should I put DHCP+DNS onto it’s own system? Should I put it on my current server? And any non-Pi recommendations for systems? (I’ve had the PI filesystem clobber itself too many times)
Edit: I’m starting to think that the real problem is having UNIFI on the same system as the server, as it prevents me reconfiguring any of the server routing information without also disconnecting unifi…
I’ve done this. I think the real problem is if I ever change the server MAC or IP, as now the unifi server isn’t picked up by the USG, which means I can’t change the static address.
