DHCP-Server binding to VLANs on PowerConnect 5548

Question

Hi, just logged on to the community as we are new owners of Dell PowerConnect 5548 switches. I read the manual and searched the forums, but I can not find out, how I can bind DHCP-server I configure on the switch to VLANs. I want to have 5 VLANs with different networks (192.168.x.x) and want to do DHCP-server with the switch. I can easily configure 5 network-pools, but how will the switch decide from which pool it picks an adresse if an DHCP-request comes in? Will there be some kind of magic, when I configure an IP-address for the switch in this VLAN? (Otherwise there is no need for this). Regards MZnetworker
