Microsoft DHCP: How to Export and import scopes between DHCP servers
We are going to use Microsoft’s Netsh command to export and import DHCP scopes from one server and then import them to another. We run a split scope on two servers for redundancy. So scope one serves the range 172.0.0.64 to 172.0.0.159 and the second server handles 172.0.0.160 to 172.0.0.255. While I was performing maintenance I noticed that in some cases someone missed the creation of the second half of the scope. So to fix this I am going to run a script that will export the scopes. Then I will run another script to import them on the second server. Make sure after wards to modify the exclusion on the second server to be opposite so that they are not both serving the same half.
