I have a windows 2000 server that is the domain controller and also the DHCP server for our network. It is connected to a router. The router is connected to the connection from the ISP. The router has been manually configured with IP and DNS servers provided by the ISP.

We are switching ISPs.

Should it be as simple as changing the IP and DNS info in the router? Would there be anything on the windows server that I need to change?

I'm sorry... I wish we had a sys admin at our company.

  • The default gateway will need to be changed on the router, as well as possibly the subnet mask. – EEAA Oct 06 '10 at 19:40
  • the windows server also acts as the DNS server. ie.. my workstation points to the windows server for DNS. Do I need to setup the DNS entries received from my ISP in the windows server somewhere? – majestiq Oct 06 '10 at 20:02
  • Do you have private addressees on your internal equipment? You may not to have to do anything. – Zoredache Oct 06 '10 at 22:04

You pretty much nailed it from the info you gave.

Yes.
