It seems to me that this would work perfectly *if* each tenant either
configures all their machines with static IP addresses or has some other
way of handing out IP addresses. I do not see how to use DHCP to assign the
192.168.1.0/24 block to Tenant #1, the 192.168.2.0/24 block to Tenant #2,
etc. via DHCP on a single server if all of them are coming in via a switch.
Once everyone has an IP address, this is great. But how to assign them?
Thanks,
