Answer» Hi, guys how are you doing?
I am working in a small company as network administrator. When I joined the company everything was configured by a FORMER network administrator. Right now, I have some difficulties configuring a new Router in DHCP server. Let me explain it in detail.
Well, in this company there were not an internet connections until today but now the administration of the company bought a static DNS from ISP provider and told me that configure the Router to the DHCP server so that, all DHCP clients gonna have an internet connection because soon we will have a web application. right now, my problem is the DHCP server was not configured properly from the beginning because this server address (192.168.0.1) should be reserved to the Router. please Take a look the configuration that i have so far
IP Address = 192.168.0.1
Sub net = 255.255.255.0
Gate way = no
DNS = 192.168.0.1
The Address pool is starting from 192.168.0.20 -192.168.0.254
Now, my question is how can i configure the new Router in this subnet? what address should i give to the Router? the 2nd Question is, they told me it is public address. so, will i add this DNS to the static Routing in the Router or it is enough to add only in the DNS FORWARDERS?
please guys help me?

Ok, so the company has only just got an internet connection, and they have bought a static IP address?
I'm sorry but I need to know more about the network layout before I can help you further.
For example:
Desktops -- Router (running DHCP) -- WWW
In this case all the machines would need the internal IP address of the router set as THIER DNS server and thier default gateway (this would be done AUTOMATICALLY through DHCP if the desktops are setup to recieve DHCP). Then, the external IP address (and subnet mask) needs to be set to the one provided by the ISP, along with a user name and password.
