Re: Diferent Gateways

You can really only get that to work if the machines are in different
Ethernet segments. Machines contact DHCP by using broadcasts. If the
machines are in different segments, they will get an IP from a scope which
matches the IP of the interface receiving the broadcast.

If the machines are in the same IP segment, this fails. There is no way
that the DHCP server can know which scope to use.

Hi,

I have two ISP Connections and I want to have one group of PCs connecting
through gateway1 and other group through gateway2 and both groups get ip
trough DHCP.

I though create two scopes which one with one gateway configured, but how
can i say that groups of pcs use one scope and the other use the second
scope.

Thanks in advance.
