I think you've missed his comment that they don't actually have different ranges or knowledge of which IPs are workstations and servers.
I saw the comment which said they "won't be able segregate the IP ranges for Workstaions and Servers. Workstaion and Server IP ranges were mixed up", but I saw no mention of not having knowledge of IPs in use, nor lacking any capability to determining this information.
Consequently, I interpreted this statement to mean that the IPs are interlaced together, not that they're completely unknown.
Hence I thought it should be possible to segregate manually by adding the (known) server IPs into a range set and use this set as an inclusion for a server scan:
I fully agree that the proper solution is imposing some management process upon the IP allocation process (DHCP, etc), but thought my suggestion to be a temporary workaround in the interim. It may involve quite a bit of work identifying the IP addresses, but it'll certainly be less disruptive than applying a network change.
