asked on
DHCP and ICS
Im looking at an example of a network, and im unlcear on something
The network has 100 users
You configure a Windows Server 2003 computer named ABC1 as a DNS server.
ABC1 has the IP address 192.168.1.2 and contains host (A) resource records for
all network client computers that are located in the branch office.
You install a Windows Server 2003 computer named ABC2 as a DHCP server.
Tand is configured as: -
Scope: 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.200
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1
DNS 192.168.1.2
You install a DSL connection for Internet access. You configure a server named
ABC3 as an Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) host with two network adapters.
The network adapter that has the IP address 131.107.96.21 connects to the DSL
modem, and the network adapter that has the IP address 192.168.0.1 connects to the
LAN.
The ISP's DNS server has the IP address 131.107.62.9.
The users report that they cannot access the Internet. You need to ensure that all
users in the network can access the Internet through the ICS host.
It says you should remove DHCP from ABC2
My questions
1) Why do you need to remove DHCP from ABC2.
2) If you have ICS, do you ALWAYS have to remove DHCP

It's from a study guide for the 291 exam.
2) You should be using RRAS (Routing and Remote Access) NOT ICS. ICS has it's own quasi-dhcp function the is not compatible with DHCP on the network.
Simply remove ICS and add the server to RRAS. Configure your connections and you should be away.
Why are you using this when you can simply point everyone to the router as the Gateway??
