DHCP scope getting very small

Hi all

I have a win 2003 server that has DHCP on it. The scope is from
192.168.150.130 to 192.168.150.200. There is about 5 ip's left and than the
scope is used up. What will happen when i add a pc and there is no IP's left
in the scope and secondly how do i make the scope bigger. e.g instead of
stopping at .200 make it till .250

Thanks in advance

Hi Austin

Thanks for your reply. I had that doc yes but it doesn't tell mw how to
expand the current scope that i have. It tell me how to do "Resubnetting"
and "Superscoping" which is if i understand it correctly when your scope is
full and CANNOT be expanded. My scope CAN be expanded as it only starts at
..130 and continue to .200. - How do i get it to start at 1 for example and
end at 250?

That depends on your subnet mask.
What is your subnet mask?

In that case, change your start and end addresses. Your IP range is
x.x.x.1 - x.x.x.254

Run Dhcpmgmt.msc
Rt click the DHCP node and add your dhcp server.
Expand the + sign
Rt Click "Scope" and choose properties
Edit your Start and End IP range in the General Tab.

OPEN DHCP, select your active SCOPE, in the SCOPE, right click the
SCOPE, not the pool, you should have a start/end boxes - change it,
restart DHCP.

Make sure that you don't expand it into used addresses by other devices.
