Statically assign - at the machine, or by DHCP reservation?
We have one DHCP server here and it's handing several different subnets

You can configure scopes to serve multiple subnets and networks if you allow
DHCP traffic to forward to the server. This is accomplished by assigning
the 003 Router option in the scope options. Each scope with a specified
003 option will only lease addresses that come from that route/network's
Matthew,
No, your DHCP server will dish out the correct IP address by scope. The
router has a DHCP helper address which will forward it to the DHCP server.
The DHCP server will see what subnet the request came from, and give out a
lease for an IP address of the scope assigned to that subnet. For
I don't quite understand the part about statically assigned IPs for
individual machines. Does that mean for certain machines only, and the
rest get dhcp addresses?
There's no need to create separate dhcp servers for each subnet. Create
one dhcp server with scopes for each of the subnets.
Do you mean that you are creating reservations in DHCP (you say
statically assign)? If that is the case, then what you will have to
do is create a reservation in EACH subnet that a given user would hit.
Since they are in different subnets, though, it would mean different
addresses (or else
Using the DHCP helper (relay) feature will work. You can set up the multiple
DHCP scopes on one or two (for redundancy) servers and the clients will pull
the correct DHCP scopes when they hook up. Most modern desktop/laptop
clients can handle the switch gracefully as they move from subnet to

So switches can also do dhcp relay ? I just thought the routers could do that.
Man am I out of touch.
Thanks

It's a layer 3 function. So, you have to have a layer 3 switch.

Hey list.
Since nobody had a good network mailing list, I'll as my question here.
We have a large flat network which I'm looking at splitting up. It was
10.x.x.x/8, looking to bring it to several 10.20.x.x/16s.
A DHCP Relay is what you want.
If a user on Subnet A plugs in to Subnet B, they will end up with a DHCPNACK
for their old IP followed by the correct IP.
