The small company I work for has two different divisions that I keep separated at the network level for security purposes.
Division 1 computers are all on network switches with IPs in the 192.168.100.x subnet.
Division 2 computers are all on network switches with IPs in the 192.168.200.x subnet.
Each division has a separate domain controller and SQL Server for the apps we use. This means that I am licensing two SQL Servers.
Is there a way for me to put a single SQL Server on a 192.168.300.x and then allow both division 1 and division 2 computers to use it. It seems like a logical idea but I can't get my head around how it would work. Especially with the connection strings and the fact that a computer on the 192.168.100.x subnet is going to have to be able to see the SQL Server on 192.168.300.x
Thanks for any/all suggestions that you can pass along.
