How do you grow the subnet mask for 2003 DHCP?

I have the situation of needing to grow the subnet mask on my DHCP from
255.255.254.0 to 255.255.252.0 but it seems that this can't be done via the
DHCP mmc plugin. I have a lot of reservations that I really don't want to
re-type.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Mark.

Use

Netsh DHCP Server \\%IPADDRESS% dump > C:\DHCP.dmp

Make your modifications to the DHCP.dmp file ( This is the current config of
your DHCP server )

Then playback the file by using

Netsh Exec C:\DHCP.dmp

This will allow you to expand the range and keep your reservations with as
little effort as possible
