Can anyone please explain what this error message means?
Alert me when DHCP Scopes Overlap with an existing IP Address
Hi storniga,
A range of IP Addresses under a subnet may be managed by two DHCP servers. There are cases wherein a part of an IP Address range under one DHCP server would be managed by another DHCP server. In both instances, there is an overlap in scopes between two DHCP servers.

Ok, so Event Messages like "DHCP Scope:.... overlaps in the range(s): (172.....) " only means that the addresses are managed on more than one DHCP Server?
Because we have two DHCP Server on each site, one acts as Primary Server and is active while the other one is passive and only takes over if the Primary fails, both servers have all the scopes configured on them and everything from the primary server is replicated to the secondary
Yes. In your case it's intentional, but it may be a misconfiguration, too.
thank you very much
