How do I find out all IP addresses in use DHCP and static

Hi,

I need to assign 50 new static IP addresses to a department. We have one scope in DHCP range 192.168.1.129 - 192.168.1.250. All other computers using static IP are typically in the range of 192.168.1.1 - 1.70. I would like to assign this range 192.168.1.80 - 1.128 to the new department.
I pinged a few IPs and they resolved to computers but did not get a reply nor a name resolution.
I would not want an IP conflict so looking for a way to find what IP are in use on the network. How?

Thanks

Use IP Scanner and put entier segment from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.250. IP scanner will tell you which IP is Live and which one is dead. One thing you will have to make sure that all devices in your setup should be switched on.
Other way is you can keep same subnet and use different IP range. That is if you keep subnet as 255.255.0.0 then you can use 192.168.2.1 to 192.168.2.255.
you can use IPSCAN 1.5
