Jul 19, 2016 11:26 AM in response to AlecZ64by chattphotos,What's your subnet mask?
Right now, the list you've provided isn't possible.
Can you start with explaining why you're wanting to split a subnet into distinct sections?
Have you considered doing IP reservations on a single /24? (192.168.1.1 - .255)

Jul 19, 2016 11:34 AM in response to chattphotosby AlecZ64,Sorry, I guess I should've provided my actual ranges instead of an example that I thought was equivalent. This is what I have, and it's valid:
10.0.1.2 - 10.0.1.190
192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.190
subnet mask 255.255.255.0
I'm doing this because we've got two routers clients are connecting to, and if I enable DHCP on both routers, we get a race condition and possibly other problems. I'm trying to replace the two routers' DHCP services with just the OS X Server DHCP service.

Jul 19, 2016 11:40 AM in response to AlecZ64by Phil0124,Your ranges are meaningless as they are. As they end up being the same thing as a single range of 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.100
Setting ranges means the IPs in those ranges get assigned by DHCP, so any client can get an IP in those ranges.
If you have three contiguous ranges, that means all those IPs can be assigned to clients.
In other words DHCP ranges are used to determine which IP addresses get automatically assigned to clients. IPs not in a range will not get leased to clients and will be left untouched.
A DHCP server will only assign IPs in the range it exists on. Your DHCP server unless it has 2 network adapters can only ever exist on one IP range. 10.x.x.x cannot be used on the same network adapter that is using 192.x.x.x
