Windows Server DHCP Scope Limitation

Question

_{Friday, July 27, 2018 5:26 PM}

Hi Team,

The maximum number of fail-over relationships for either DHCP server is defined as 31 Scope. 

If we want to configure 200 Scopes in DHCP Infra with High availability. What is the solution ? 

Regards,

Hi Kannan,

You are probably concerned about this statement (Technet article):

The local/partner server already has 31 (maximum allowed) failover relationships. A server cannot have more than 31 failover relationships.

So it is not connected with 31 scopes but relationships - failover relationships - server can't replicate with more than 31 other DHCP servers.

Hi,

Thanks for your question.

As e-micra said,you can only establish a failover relationship with 31 other DHCP servers.And you can build the  scopes as many as you want on your DHCP server.

Best regards,

Travis
