Routing vlan question for PC6248

So I need to connect our PC6248 to the ISP's Router. We are going to use Link networks between the devices to access MPLS networks.

The ISP router will have our internal network (172.16.112.0 /20) in it's routing table and the GW will be the link network address (192.168.0.2) 

I want to subnet our 172.16.112.0 /20 into several smaller networks (/24). My question is can I go ahead and add my vlans with subnetted addresses right away on the PC6248 or do I first need a vlan with the 172.16.112.0 /20 address and the creating my subnetted adresses? 

Network
172.16.112.0 /20 -----ISP-Router--192.168.0.1 /24--------------------192.168.0.2 /24--PC6248-----172.16.112.0 /20 or 172.16.112.0 /24

Thanks for the answer. I think I may not have been clear with my question.

If the ISP router have a route like below

Network        | Mask |  Gateway

------------------+-------+------------- 
172.16.112.0 |   /20   |  192.168.0.2

The Gateway address is a vlan interface address on the PC6248 (vlan2 with ip 192.168.0.1 /24). Now if I create a vlan3 with IP address of 172.16.112.1 /24 and put my clients on it like you describe. Will the PC6248 route the traffic originating from ISP router side to my 172.16.112.0 /24 network or do I need to create a vlan with IP 172.16.112.1 /20?


Note the different mask and also the 192.168.0.0 /24 network is just a "link" network

If routing between Dell switches (N3024 switches) should I assign vLans on each switch (along with an IP) or should just one switch have all the vLan details?

Another way of asking the same question: should each vLan have an IP on each switch, or should a vLan only ever have 1 IP address assigned to it regardless of how many switches or vLans are involved?

Thanks
