Ok, below is how I have my DHCP setup and my VLAN setup. I tired to just do straight DHCP without a VLAN but I found out that my ethernet ports that I want to DHCP are all L2 (layer 2) and cannot be setup with an IP or DHCP. I was told to try and setup a VLAN and “point” to the DHCP. It still does not work the way I have it setup though. Could someone tell me what I did wrong or if there is a better way to do this. I have a
