	You know you can configure a Cisco router to act like a DHCP server,
don't you?  You might save yourself some hassle there.  All you have to
do is give it the pool of IPs to hand out.  I can look up the exact
commands if you like.  That might save you some money.	
 
	I'm also fairly sure you could actually do some clever VLAN
voodoo somewhere, but I'm so rusty on LAN stuff that I couldn't tell you
how off the top of my head.  These days, I mostly route and rarely
switch.  [grin]
