      Hi Guys,

      As I understand that pfsense can work using DHCP server with "Available Range" according to the LAN interface.
      Please find attached screenshot.

      I am actually planning to use pfsense as DHCP server for remote network in different building, therefore the subnet is not the same range.

      Can pfsense work as the remote DHCP server? Along the path, I will use routers as the DHCP relay.

      May I know if it can be achieved?

      If this feature is not supported yet, is there any plan to support it in next releases?

      Sorry if there is any duplicate thread as I seems cannot find this info yet.

      Thank you :)
