DHCP newbie

[minemail]

L have a dhcp server installed an working. But is there a way to use two or
more scope options.

I have 1 subnet 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0. But I have some clients that I
would have to use 1 router and other clients to use another router and the
same with different dns servers.

Is this possible?

The only way to do this would be to run two scopes, one for each router; but
this would divide your network into two pieces.

Short of dividing into two subnets, you could leave the "Router" option out
of the Scope so that nothing recieves a Gateway via DHCP,..then manually add
the Default Gateway into the TCP/IP setting of the Clients via the
"Advanced" button.

Second posibility:

If you only have a *few* clients that are the "exception" to the rule, then
you can use Reservations in DHCP. You can assign a "Router Option" to the
Reservation. You can't do it while creating the reservation,...you have go
back and go it after the Reservation is created.
