Two factors converge to make this work.
1.) The IP Helper address
Converts the broadcast request to a unicast. The destination being
the helper address, and the source address being the Router interface
that received the request *Very Important*
2.) The NT server is
Thank you for your response
I want tp put 2 scopes in that server, which means that I have 1 IP address or
evan two but how can I force a client to take from specific scope
Thanks

Dear All,
I'm using Windows NT DHCP server with 2 scopes in that server. I'm

I'm interested in this too. In an emergency we setup three DHCP server, one
on each segment. Since they're just workstations with no redundancy at all,
I'd like to setup one DHCP server on a fourth segment that has all our
servers and have the three segments forward their DHCP requests to the
While I can't find any of the old documentation I had for the SSRs, I know
we've never set them up to do DHCP forwarding, but that doesn't mean they
can't. As for how does the server know, it has to come off a source
network, so this is relayed along with the packet so the server knows what
You'll only want the 1 IP on the server if the local network has 1 IP range.
If memory serves me right, you just add a 2nd scope and setup the ip
helper-address to the server. It acts as the DHCP relay and the server will
know the request came from the other network. Hopefully someone will add
As long as you have a router to move the traffic between the two VLANs, you
can use the ip helper-address to forward the broadcast to a known unicast
address for the DHCP server.
