Use the Pool Options page to configure additional DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) pool options, including vendor-defined options. DHCP options are collections of data with type codes that indicate how the options should be used. When a client broadcasts a request for information, the request includes the option codes that correspond to the information the client wants the DHCP server to supply.
To access this page, click in the navigation menu.
If no DHCP pools exist, the Pool Options page does not display the fields shown in Pool Options Fields.
If any DHCP pools are configured on the system, this page contains the following fields:
