Configuring Option 43 and Option 60 on Linux
Update the /etc/dhcpd.conf file. Similar to Windows, the steps are :
1. Set aside a block or pool of addresses that this DHCP server can allocate.
2. Set the option 43 and use the name vendor class identifier for option 60.
For example,
option myname code 43 = text;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 {
#default gateway
option routers 192.168.0.1;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option nis-domain "domain.org";
option domain-name "domain.org";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
option time-offset -18000; # Eastern Standard Time
# option ntp-servers 192.168.1.1;
# option netbios-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
# --- Selects point-to-point node (default is hybrid). Don't change this unless
# -- you understand Netbios very well
# option netbios-node-type 2;
option vendor-class-identifier "iDRAC";
set vendor-string = option vendor-class-identifier;
option myname "2001::9174:9611:5c8d:e85//xmlfiles/dhcpProv.xml -u root -p calvin";
range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.128 192.168.0.254;
default-lease-time 21600;
max-lease-time 43200;
# we want the nameserver to appear at a fixed address
host ns {
next-server marvin.redhat.com;
hardware ethernet 12:34:56:78:AB:CD;
fixed-address 207.175.42.254;
}
}
