If DHCP is your main worry, then you actually responding to a mosquito bite with a hammer - Windows and Linux DHCP servers can work with your current hardware and work very well.

Skunks,

I would like to purchase either one of the above and I need advice on the way to go.
We are looking at network segregation using different subnets on different VLANs and at the moment we assign IP's by using a Windows DHCP Server.

I am not sure if Windows is able to handle assignment of DHCP on multiple subnets but from the little info I have gathered I understand this is easier done on either Cisco Router or Layer 3 Core switch. On our current setup we have Layer 2 2960 Catalyst switches and one 2901 Catalyst Router facing the internet before the Firewall.

What would be the best way to set this up?
You can inbox your number and I will be glad to call back.

Thanks and regards,

Peter Mugoh
