Hi everyone,
I would like to take some control over our local network at work (which is currently managed by a BT Business Hub... eep). To do this I would like to install a DNS/DHCP server of my own. (The hub will still be providing the internet connection)
I have the DNS server configured how I want it.
Now, I have the config settings I want for the DHCP3 server but I am not sure how I go about activating a new one on a network? Do I just disable the DHCP capabilities of the hub and enable the server? Do I enable the new server first, then disable the hub?
The DHCP range of the current server is 192.168.1.10-100 and the new one will be 192.168.1.10-70. Will any machines outside of the new range be automatically assigned a new IP address when their lease expires?
Ideally I would be able to have this in some sort of test environment, but alas I do not.
