Appendix: SV-4K and DHCP Option 43
The SV-4K media player receive firmware and configuration from StadiumVision
Director, version 4.0 or higher. The SV-4K media player finds the StadiumVision
Director server through the use of DHCP options (specifically, options 60 and 43).
Option 60 is used to signal the SV-4K media player that the option 43 content is meant
for it to be received.
l
If you are supporting a deployment with both Cisco DMP 4310G and SV-4K
devices, you will need to configure an Option 43 string for each model.
l
If the DHCP server is limited to a single Option 43 string per DHCP pool (such as
with a Cisco DHCP server), then be sure to configure a separate DHCP scope for
the SV-4K media players.
In this example, a Cisco IOS DHCP is being used, which supports only a single pairing
of options 60 and 43 can be used within a single scope (requiring two different IP
scopes if there is a need to support both the Cisco DMP-4310G and the SV-4K media
players). This article only provides the procedure for the SV-4K media player.
Example 1. SV-4K DHCP Scope
ip dhcp pool SV-4K
network 10.10.1.0 255.255.255.0
default-router 10.10.1.1
option 60 ascii SV-4K-NA
option 43 hex
553e.6874.7470.3a2f.2f31.302e.3130.2e31.302e.3130.303a.
3830.3830.2f53.7461.6469.756d.5669.7369.6f6e.2f64.6d70.5f76.342f.736
3.7269.7074.732f.626f.6f74.2e62.7273
NOTE:
The periods in the option 43 string are automatically
created by the IOS and ARE NOT TYPED when creating the
ASCII string. An example of the raw ASCII string value as typed
can be found below.
Example 2. Creating Option 60
Type the line as shown above. Possible variations are as follows:
