I’m at a loss as to why they’d hard-code an IP address instead of pulling a DHCP lease. I suppose they chose that subnet with the thought that it isn’t in use for most people, but it would in fact collide with a VLAN on my network.
- Liftyee 2y agoI reckon it's a combination of simplifying it and assuming that anyone capable of setting up a VLAN knows enough to sort this one out. That might not hold for more exotic networks (businesses, schools...)
