we are re designing our network here, bascially we have a lan extension to one of our other offices, there default gateway is here at the main office, my question is do I put a router at the other end to segment the network, or do I put them on a seperate vlan ? which is best ?
Also if im using a dhcp server here, how could I make it issue ip addresses into the other vlan ?

where exactly would I apply the iphelper address ?, on my switches ?

The helper-address would be configured on your router interfaces - the interfaces where the hosts which require DHCP service are located.
Pls do rate posts that help.

Hi
U need to enter it under the sub-interface mode.
Router(config)#interface f0/0.2
Router(config-subif)#ip address <> <>
Router(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1q 2
Router(config-subif)#ip helper-address
Hope this helps
