I am going to have 2 differewnt internet connections at work for a bit. 1 is
t1 and the other 50 MB fiber. Both have there own routers/switches. The T1
uses the 208 range the fiber willbne different. Most devices use dhcp. For
those I woudl liek for them to be able to get the new address to use the
fiber connection 1st and then I will reprogram the manual ones. IS there
anyway to do this? Shoudl I just plug both routers into my server switch. OR
should I pluf the fiber ethernet into my dhcl dc1 nic 2?

1) Plug both routers into network switches

2) Make the fibre router the DHCP scope option gateway

3) Use reservations (with options) to nominate individual DHCP clients to
use the T1 router as gateway. These reserved IP addresses must be within the
scope, but can be outside the pool available for allocation. So you can
duplicate the reservations on a backup DHCP server.
