Regarding using DHCP to configure servers:

I am of the mindset that as long as the server gets the same address
every time, I don't care how it gets configured, and if I'm going to
set up a DHCP infrastructure why not do it for everything. I believe
that even though things may never change, the ability to make things
easily changeable is something worthwhile.

Others are of the mindset that server IPs change so infrequently that
it is not worth putting in DHCP and risky to do so. What's the benefit
if the addresses never change?

I am looking at a network renumber in my future, so I was going to
deploy this with the renumber.

How do you feel about DHCP used to configure server addresses?
Do you do it at your $ORGANIZATION? Was it split? Do you like it? What
do you see as values/issues with this deployment?

On and off list answers are welcome to any or all of questions.
