If everyone just goes to the internet, it'll work.  But if you've got one or
more servers internally, I'd be real afraid of trunking on a 10 mb interface.
You'll reduce your broadcasts, but I think performance will suffer horribly
crossing the router.  Since you've run out of addresses on a /24, I assume
you've got a couple hundred devices.  Personally I'd just move the mask back
one or 2 bits, making it a /22 or /23, and using the additional 1.0 or 1,2,
and 3.0 subnets.  There's things you can do to almost all OSs to reduce
broadcasts.  How many broadcasts are you seeing per second?  If it's no more
than 20 on average, I wouldn't even worry about it.

>VLAN 200 192.168.169.0/24

>New design:

 Internet
     |
     s0
  2600 router e1 --- public servers
     e0
     | dot1q trunk
   switch
VLAN 200 VLAN 100

There is just one DHCP server. It will be in VLAN 100, address
192.168.168.10. The DHCP server will have 2 scopes for the 2 subnets.

We're going to do inter-VLAN routing on the 2600 router.

Will this config work as far as DHCP is concerned?

interface ethernet 0
no ip address
interface ethernet 0.1

ip address 192.168.168.1  255.255.255.0
