Hey guys... I was wondering if anyone has tried using FreeNAS as their DHCP server (or more importantly, as a router in general)...
If not, does anyone know the order in which FreeNAS comes up (i.e., does it require that it locks its IP address before initializing any Virtual Machines... or does it boot completely including bringing up Virtual Machines before binding to an IP address...)
I haven't tried this in any degree yet... but am happy to experiment if it hasn't been done or attempted before... I did a rudimentary search, but all I could find was people not having a good grasp on how to do port forwarding to access their NAS from outside their network, especially when using software like dd-WRT...
Any help is appreciated.
