Hi oleschmi  ,

Thanks for posting here.

Like Ace mentioned that if you want remotely connect to a DHCP server via MSC files, then you have to customize a MMC with DHCP snap-in first and assign address or host name of remote DHCP server ,save it to a MSC file.

After that you could perform “mmc path \ filename.msc” to establish it.

If you are interesting in remotely manage a DHCP server via command line , I’d like suggest you to take look the articles below :

Yes. You can do one of two things:

• Open the default DHCP console, right click "DHCP" at the top of the left nav pane, choose Add Server, then type in the IP, name or browse for one.
• Create a custom MMC and add DHCP, then specify the IP or name of the DHCP server.
