You can configure scopes to serve multiple subnets and networks if you allow
DHCP traffic to forward to the server.  This is accomplished by assigning
the "003 Router" option in the scope options.  Each scope with a specified
003 option will only lease addresses that come from that route/network's
default gateway of the same IP address.
