If VLAN 7 has access to the VLAN that the primary dhcp server is on, you
need to somehow block dhcp requests.  What I did was besides using VLAN's on
my switches, I have a Sonicwall firewall which handles the actual routing
between vlans, then I set certain vlans to use the first dhcp server via a
dhcp helper in the firewall.  Then in the other vlan I point the dhcp helper
at the second dhcp server.
