I’m setting up DHCP reservations on my home network and came up with a simple schema to identify devices: .100 is for desktops, .200 for mobiles, .010 for my devices, .020 for my wife’s, and so on. Does anyone else use schemas like this? I’ve also got .local DNS names for each device, but having a consistent schema feels nice to be able to quickly identify devices by their IPs.
I think it will just identify the device by MAC and use whatever IP that MAC has assigned to block queries. I just noticed the other day that i can select devices by MAC and assign to groups, and my pihole isn’t the DHCP.
