Correct, except if you have routed isolation and registration networks.
DHCP relays for those should point to the PF interface for each.

The only networks it need to know anything specific about are the isolation and 
registration networks.
It needs to know their subnets and a few more details if they are not layer 2 
connected to your PF server such as the "next_hop" between the PF interfaces 
and these networks.

See this for a better explanation:

You can even define profiles that match combinations of things.
E.g connection type & SSID.

Connection type can also be wired vs wireless.

It's pretty flexible.
You should be able to narrow down to exactly what you want.

Try it, you'll like it!
