Re: DHCP and the 80/20 rule

One live dhcp server per subnet. Is it not?

Wouldn't that cause a problem with the system changing the IP address of
a clients at renew time?

Sure you can. Run both in the same subnet, use excisions on each server
to
exclude the range of addresses the other is giving out. Configure both
for,
say, 192.168.1.x addressing; then on one server exclude the addresses
192.168.1.200-255 and on the other exclude the addresses 192.168.1.1-199
so
they don't step on each other's toes.

I don't consider this wise unless you're running a really big network
(in
which case you probably have multiple ranges anyway) but it surely can
be
done.
