Add a subnet that includes that address to the shared network - it 
does not need to have any range or pool statements.

However, remember that your DHCP definition **MUST** match your 
actual network - which means the relay agent does need to have an 
interface (& IP address) in the same physical network as the clients.

If you are still unclear on this, then it may help if you describe 
your setup and what you are wishing to achieve.
