Default Moving HMCs to VLAN

In one environment I have two 570s each with their own HMC connected
via ethernet cable. I'm adding some new systems to this environment
and want to put all the systems and HMCs into their own VLAN so any
HMC can talk with any system. Anyone know of any bumps in the road?

My only concern is the DHCP service on the HMCs. Are each smart
enough not to issue an address that already exists?

TIA - Steve

We recently just did the same and didn't have any problems.
