It sounds like you want the DHCP server to be getting its address from itself - if that's correct, I have to ask what you are hoping to accomplish, because I'm not creative enough to understand why that would be desirable.
I believe Eugene is assuming that you want the server to obtain an address from a different DHCP server on one interface while providing DHCP service on a second interface.

Thanks Eugene for quick response.
I didnt understand the below:
You will need another DHCP server reachable via eth0.
Also i have another query that is it possible to run dhcp server and dhcp client on same machine on same interface tap0?
Also do u have information that does dhcp server validate that source MAC address of in coming dhcp solicit packet?

Of course it is possible, why not? You will need another DHCP server reachable via eth0.
