Notes

To open DHCP, click Start, click Settings, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click DHCP.
Scope options are inherited as default values for all clients of the applicable scope. Option values you configure here are overridden by any reserved client-based values assigned for the same options.

Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
