Hello,

I was wondering if it was possible to just change the subnetmask of my scope in DHCP (W2K3)
Set the start-ip adress: 192.168.1.1 and set the last ip to 192.168.254.254...

That way i create a subnetmask of 255.255.0.0 (65,534 hosts possible)

Is this a correct way of widening a DHCP-scope?
Or do i really have to redefine the scope and reassign every static ip in my network?

Kindest regards, and thanx for the comments...
