Hi,

I know we can to have a MS DHCP server serving multiples subnets, and
these subnets are in different LAN segments with a router (DHCP Relay
Agent/RFC 1542 compliant) in the middle.

I used TURBO DHCP Server and I had to set up the Relay Agent IP
(router) address. Is that necesary in MS DHCP Server?

Thanks.

No,

We use Netware's DHCP Server and we use MS DHCP Relay and it works fine.

No, you do not have to tell a MS DHCP server the address of the relay
agent, but it sounds like a good idea from a security standpoint.
Obviously he agent needs to know the address of the server.
