Yes this is true. On the remote router you would add
the command:
"ip helper-address X.X.X.X"
The X.X.X.X is the address of you DHCP server or the
LAN segment that it sites on.
When the client does a DHCP request it is broadcast on
thier local segment. The router sees this request and
picks it up. Knowing it has a helper address, it
converts the broadcast to either a directed broadcast
or a unicast (I think it depends on if you use the
server IP or the LAN segment) directed at the DHCP
server. In this request will be the GIA. This is the
gateway interface address. This will be the primary
address of the users local segment. In QIP, and I
don't know about other DHCP programs, it uses this GIA
as the identifier to determine which DHCP pool to use.
As to setting up the DHCP software, I'm not the one to
ask....
Hope this helps...
