Configuring Server Options

In the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server utility, right-click the Server Options folder under the DHCP scope, and select Configure Options.

Configure Options

The Server Options window displays.
Click the Advanced tab and configure the following parameters:
- Vendor Class. Select the vendor class that you plan to use. For example, AP3965.
- Available Options. Select the predefined 001 sub-option to assign to this scope.
- Data Entry. Enter the controller IP addresses to return to the APs. This is a comma-delimited list.
Server Options
Click OK.
DHCP Option 43 is now configured. This DHCP option is available for all the DHCP scopes that are configured in the DHCP server. When an AP requests vendor specific information, the DHCP server sends the ExtremeWireless Appliance IP addresses in Option 43 to the AP.
