Hi,
I am in the process of including a firewall (Firewalla) in my network and I would like to provision static IP address to various Google Wifi points. While I am able to reserve and provision static IPs for various devices in the network, I am unable to provision static IP to the access points themselves. Anyway I can achieve this? This is the only way I can make my firewall effective and be able to route my traffic through it.
Thanks in advance for you help.

Not possible. Feedback to Google can be provided through the Google Home app:
In my experience it seems that Nest Wifi secondaries stay on the IP they get initially. I don't expect they will change often if at all.

Firewalla and Nest Wifi ain't a great match though, read more about why here:
Firewalla does provide info on a workaround:
