is there a max number of dhcp scopes that win2000 or win 2003 will support? I was just told that we may need to put up a server to support 200 dhcp scopes.

Theoretically there is no maximum.
In a test lab on mediocre hardware (a dual P-500 with 256 MB of memory) we
successfully ran a Windows Server 2003 DHCP server with about 5100 scopes
servicing six subnets. The server was hit with a stress application for 48
days, during which time it provided about 68 million leases to (virtual)
client computers. So 200 scopes shouldn't present any problems.
Full details of the test are found in the Windows Server 2003 DHCP Help
topic, "Planning DHCP networks." On the Web at

Thank you. I work for a CLEC and we have a lot of collocations on the east
coast. We want the ability for our techs to have full network access from
each collo.
