dhcpserver subnet add option
6.33.1 Syntax
dhcpserver set subnet {<name>|<number>} add option
<identifier> <value>
6.33.2 Description
This command allows you to configure the DHCP server using the options
detailed in RFC 2132. To display a list of available options, use the command
dhcpserver list options
. The heading of each option in the list contains
the option identifier and the required value (in italics) for that specific option.
The following is an extract from the option list:
option auto-configure
flag;
This option, based on RFC 2563, controls whether or not the auto
configuration of IP address is to be allowed for clients on this subnet. It only
applies in cases where the DHCP server is unwilling or unable to supply an IP
address lease. In this case, if this option is set to 1, then the DHCP server will
not intervene to prevent clients from u sing auto-configuration to determine an
IP address. If this option is set to 0, the use of IP address auto-configuration
on the network will be explicitly forbidden by the DHCP server. If this option is
not explicitly configured, then it will be assumed that auto-configuration is
allowed on the network.
