I am working on an assignment for a college course and I am having trouble getting my DHCP settings to work properly. The goal of the assignment is to break up the devices on the Main-Office-Router so that each department is on its own VLAN. I did this (I think) and now the DHCP does not work. I think it is because the servers got close off under VLAN 20, but I am not sure if there is a way around that.
Here are the steps I am expected to complete. Any direction you can provide is appreciated.
Steps:
I attached my starting file (T1AddLocations) and my current progress (T2LimitVLANs). My current progress is filled with various troubleshooting methods so it may be a little messy at the moment. That is why I attached the starting file as well. Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

i checked second attachment.
1. make sure your DHCP server can access by intermediate routers. configure server connected switch ports access and vlan 20. 2. switch 3 to switch 1 link needs to be trunk and allow required vlans. (for server 20).
3. add ip helper addresses in main office router serial interfaces correctly.
4. check if server pingable from branch routers
5. do dhcp check again
note - i saw in branch router 1, help address is wrong.
apply this sequence for all branch routers
