Changing subnet

by allen . Updated 25 years, 8 months ago

We need to change the subnet of our remote servers to class C from class B in order to keep our broadcast traffic down. The problem we encounter is this:

When we changed the subnet in Server and in DHCP, users could no longer login to the serverfrom a client – DHCP was not granting an address once we deactivated the old scope, so we had to roll back. Our routers already have class C subnets identified. All DHCP settings including DNS Servers, Routers, WINS servers, domain name are identical in the two scopes. The only difference is the subnet.

What am I missing?
