      Hi there!
      Can anyone point out, how to manage DHCP Relay functionality for 2 landscapes on one PFSense?

      I have two isolated landscapes on on PF and on ESXi.
      So I have two DHCP Servers in each landscape and need to set IP Helper addresses.
      As I can't set options for each interface in DHCP Relay on PF, is there any other way?
      The vSwitch on ESXi-side also has no IP Helper setting.
      So how do I get Clients from VLAN 182 send the DHCP request into VLAN 181 for example?

      Cheers,
      Dominik

        pfSense doesn't know which DHCP server is responsible for an interface and there is no possibility to configure this.

        What you can do is, to configure both scopes with respecting 'option 82' on both servers and check "Append circuit ID and agent ID to requests" in the DHCP relay settings and add both servers below.
