Using DHCP with VLAN and OSPF

Hi there. I'm trying to figure out why my dhcp server is not working. Everything works statically and it works in the same switch but not in the other switched VLANs. Help please?

 I have found two issues on your project.

First on your DHCP server. The DHCP server´s gateway IP address is wrong.

Second, you need to have the command "ip helpper-address" under every subinterface on routers  Core_Router1 US and 

Core_Router2 US

@Flavio Miranda Thank you so much. I wasn't sure if I should use the VLAN or the physical router gateway. I didn't realize the 'ip helper-address' command was required. Thank you again.

@markieceBreeding  yes, the command is required because you have a router (layer3 device) between your PCs and your DHCP server. DHCP request is sent in broadcast and broadcast will not cross the router unless you config the "ip helper-address".
