DHCP server doesn't give out Default Gateway to end devices / Can't ping the network devices.

[Cent19]

Hi! we have a class project to design a network and alot departments on their own vlans.

As of the moment we have successfully configured VTP and trunking. We are now experiencing errors on our DHCP where in we have encountered a message "dhcp failed apipa is being used" and as well as we can't reach our network devices with our PCs. 

The DHCP server appears to be not giving out default gateways also.
