Sounds relatively easy then. If I were you I'd create a new scope on your DHCP server with:
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.3.255 255.255.252.0 This will give you 1,022 possible addresses. Deactivate your active scope, then activate the new one. Clients will renew automagically, and you'll have the addition room to breathe. - WJR On Thu, Dec 17, 2009 at 15:02, Jeff Johnson <[email protected]>wrote: > OK, no vlans, but I do have DHCP running (150 addresses) All are in the > same physical location. > > > > *Jeff Johnson* > > *Systems Administrator* > > 714-773-2600 Office > > 714-773-6351 Fax > > [image: hydraflow] > > > > *From:* William Robbins [mailto:[email protected]] > *Sent:* Thursday, December 17, 2009 12:58 PM > > *To:* Active Directory Admin Issues > *Subject:* Re: Need more IP addresses > > > > The "correct" way is relative to your network. > > Are you currently running any VLAN's?
