    VLANs are more an ethernet concept than a TCPIP concept. Between VLAN-aware
    switches, the ethernet packets are different and contain an additional payload.

    So if you can find a VLAN aware router that has DHCP capability, it could
    theoretically discriminate between DHCP requests.

    Is there a reason why you need different subnets at the TCPIP level if you
    provide ethernet blocks between the subnets ?
