Hi,
Im running a larger network with mikrotik routers and ubnt as PTP between.
Is it possible to have a centralized DHCP server using DHCP relay in mikrotik.
Can i run DHCP relay over OSPF, and how i do it.
Hope someone can help
Cheers

OSPF has nothing to do with DHCP relay - it is like asking if you can use DHCP relay if it is cloudy outside.
On the routers that act as relays, simply go to IP->DHCP Relay and add the relay, you have to give the DHCP relay a name and specify the interface it should listen on and the IP for the DHCP server that it should send to. Then it should work.
If you are using a central MikroTik as a DHCP server, you will need to specify the relay IP for the remote relay in order for relaying to be allowed and to ensure that the devices on that relay get IPs from the correct subnet on the MikroTik.
You are right. Can you explain how to do DHCP server on router that has more interfaces to the network? I had to configure DHCP server on each interface and then rewrite leases to accept ALL DHCP servers. Do you have solution with just one DHCP server like on virtual interface?
Thanks

Put your interfaces in a bridge and the DHCP Server on the Bridge.
