but it is not creating under super scope.creating like below
+hostname
++IPV4
+++Superscopename
+++newscopes

Could any one suggest me , am i doing wrong ? or is there any other way to create scope ?

Answer 1

You have to Set your Superscope to active, then your creating scope commands will automatically create scopes efficiently under the active Superscope.

set superscope MySuperScope 1 > (this sets the superscope to use for the rest of your DHCP creating session)

Then create IPs/Scopes you want to add by using the same command

netsh dhcp server add scope
