Please confirm the following is a known problem:

Case 1:
Given a 10.200.100.0/24 subnet,

Sun Ray Server 1 (SR1) with single NIC
- Interconnect: 10.200.100.1
- DHCP Scope: 10.200.100.10 - 10.200.100.70

Sun Ray Server 2 (SR2) with single NIC
- Interconnect: 10.200.100.2
- DHCP Scope: 10.200.100.71 - 10.200.100.130

SR1 and SR2 are configured in the same FOG.

When DTU gets an address in the DHCP scope of SR1 (e.g. 10.200.100.30) and
connects to SR2 in a Kiosk session, this cause a problem.

This should be fine.  What problem does it cause?

Do these machines literally have a single NIC that is attached to a
Sun Ray interconnect, and no other network connectivity?  Or do
they have other NICs that connect them to the rest of the world?

Apart from the Sun Ray interconnect, there is one NIC that is used as Sun Ray public network. The NIC has an IP 192.168.100.200. A user's print request to a printer connected to the redirected COM port in a Windows Kiosk session will fail in this case. If the DTU gets an address in the DHCP scope of SR1 and connects to SR1 (or the same case for SR2), the problem disappears.

Case 2:
Given a 10.200.100.0/24 subnet,

Sun Ray Server (SR) with two NICs
- Interconnect 1: 10.200.100.1
- DHCP Scope: 10.200.100.10 - 10.200.100.70

- Interconnect 2: 10.200.200.1
- DHCP Scope: 10.200.200.10 - 10.200.200.70

Is this a supported configuration?

Technically it's supported, but unless you're a DHCP expert we
recommend that you don't do this because it can fail in a
surprising way.  If you decide to take this approach then the
range of DHCP addresses should be at least double the number
of Sun Rays that you intend to deploy onto this interconnect.

I do experience this case fails in a surprising way. I didn't mention explicitly in the last message that the two NICs share the same broadcast domain. Will this worsen this case?
