How to disable Incus DHCP on network

Incus
1

Hi, I am running TrueNAS 25.04 so I have Incus for VMs and LXCs. I am running one VM in case that makes a difference.

Incus got bound to one of my IP address aliases on my physical ethernet adapter. Now the Incus DHCP is taking precedence on my network.

I need to know how to disable the Incus DHCP so that my router can handle that task as I have it designed.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome!

Are you sure that the Incus DHCP server is listening on interfaces that are not managed by Incus?

Use this command. It will show all services that are listening on which network interface, and then will filter on bootps (port 67 for DHCP server).

sudo ss -tulp | grep bootps

Thanks for the reply!

I took the nuclear option and disabled DHCP and DNS completely for Incus. The only VM I’m running under Incus has a static IP address on its own ethernet adapter. I don’t plan on running any other VMs with Incus, so it’s not a problem for me.
