It is the opposite.
The foreign router company asked us to give addresses to our clients in the
pre-existents 44 different subnets... it was not our choice. They have 44+
routers which does VLANs + routing + mangling. We needed to squeeze inside
their bounds.
And it is only the clients which are linux embedded (debian embedded), the
DHCP server is a normal class big iron running debian.
