The dhcp configuration file is scoped.   Options that don't appear
within any declaration are global.   Options appearing within braces
are global within the braces.   For example:

option domain-name "foo.com";
group {
  option domain-name-servers ns1.foo.com, ns2.foo.com;
  subnet 10.0.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    option routers 10.0.10.1;
  }
  subnet 10.0.11.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    option routers 10.0.11.1;
  }
}
group {
  option domain-name-servers ns3.foo.com, ns4.foo.com;
  subnet 10.1.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    option routers 10.1.10.1;
  }
  subnet 10.1.11.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    option routers 10.1.11.1;
  }
}

As you can see, the domain-name option is global.   The
domain-name-servers options are specific to anything within the group
declarations in which they appear.   The routers options are specific
only to their subnets.
