option

The option command configures DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server options. The code parameter specifies the DHCP option code and ranges from 1-254. The ascii string parameter specifies an NVT ASCII character string. ASCII character strings that contain white space must be delimited by quotation marks. The hex string parameter specifies hexadecimal data. In hexadecimal, character strings are two hexadecimal digits. You can separate each byte by a period (for example, a3.4f.22.0c), colon (for example, a3:4f:22:0c), or space (for example, a3 4f 22 0c).
