What is the reasoning behind creating this network configuration?
In a typical DHCP setup, you would set aside a range of IP addresses (or a set
of static IPs) in the DHCP server that DHCP does not attempt to lease out. These
physical boxes can be anywhere on the network.
Also, I question why you are using the server as a gateway in this manner. It's
probably more beneficial to have all PCs, whether statically or dynamically
addressed, connected to the central switch - including the router.
If you did this because your hub ran out of ports, and are using the ports on
the router, just go out and buy a larger switch and streamline the entire
network wiring.
