xCAT will serve DHCP leases to the network segment used by your compute nodes. 
Check the man page for 'networks'. If you want the extra devices to be in a 
separate network segment, you can create another network xCAT object. You set 
the address range on the network object.
Then 'makedhcp' will rebuild the dhcp files will the correct address ranges.
