Based on info on og of CentOS 6.5 system, at the moment I solved the
probelm this way and it seems it works.
Let me know if you think I misunderstood anything.

created /root/dna_addrange.ldif
dn: cn=POSIX IDs,cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment
Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
changetype: modify
add: dnaNextRange
dnaNextRange: 1639600001-1639799999
-

[root at c7server slapd-LOCALDOMAIN-LOCAL]# ldapmodify -x -D "cn=Directory
Manager" -f /root/dna_addrange.ldif -W
Enter LDAP Password:
modifying entry "cn=POSIX IDs,cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment
Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config"

Now the group create command automatically insert an unallocated GID
1639600005:
[root at c7server slapd-LOCALDOMAIN-LOCAL]# ipa group-add
Group name: testgroup
Description: test group per generazione gid
-----------------------
Added group "testgroup"
-----------------------
  Group name: testgroup
  Description: test group per generazione gid
  GID: 1639600005
