Two solutions that come to mind are:  a.) treat the networks separately if they need to be. This may be difficult if the relay agents are wireless AP’s. or b.) treat the pool as a single shared resource and break out the user groups in the reporting.
These may or may not solve the problem, but it is what comes to mind with the detail at hand.

Subject: Re: Check Relay Agent IP address

Hi Glenn,

I've a address pool 192.168.1.x which contain 200 ip addresses. When I generated over 200 dhcp request (say 210) in this VLAN (relay agent IP = 192.168.1.254), all the addresses in this pool is used and the other address also being used (192.168.2.x).

How could I prevent this problem?

Best Regards,
Billy

Hi Billy

The dhcp server does this automatically. If a request comes in from a remote subnet, the dhcp relay agent adds in the gateway address as it forwards the packet. The dhcp server looks at this gateway address and automatically matches it with a subnet declaration for you.

There is no special dhcpd.conf configuration required. A subnet declaration is the same whether it is a locally attached or remote network.
