DHCP Options 60, 66, and 43 Server Configurations

Option 66

The IP Phones support download protocols according to RFC2131 and RFC1541
(TFTP, FTP, HTTP,. HTTPS) to support DHCP option 66. Option 66 is part of the
DHCP Offer message that the DHCP server generates to tell the phone which
configuration server it should use to download new firmware and configuration
files.

For DHCP to automatically populate the IP address or domain name for the
servers, your DHCP server must support Option 66. Option 66 is responsible for
forwarding the server’s IP address or domain name to the phone automatically. If
your DHCP server does not support Option 66, you must manually enter the IP
address or domain name for your applicable configuration server into your IP
phone configuration.

Options 60 and 43

The Aastra phones also support Option 60 and Option 43 as per RFC 2132.

Option 60 (Vendor Class Identifier) provides the DHCP server with a unique
identifier for each phone model. This enables a system administrator to send the
phone a customized Server Configuration in option 43.

The table below lists the identifier values for each phone model.
