# DHCP Scope

This section enables users to input DHCP scopes, which will solely be used for **visual representation** purposes in the IP Plan. Additionally, users can exclude specific ranges as required. To define a DHCP scope, go to **Network - DHCP** scope. Here you are able, by clicking either the create button in the top menu or, if there are no scopes yet the **Create** button on the display.

Enter from which to which IP Adress you want to define the DHCP scope. Additionally it’s also possible to skip certain IP adresses in the scope. In this example the scope is from 192.168.11.150 - 192.168.11.250 and it skips 192.168.11.160 to 192.168.11.163.
