Standard padding format

{

Sub-option 1—Contains the VLAN ID of the interface that received the client's request, module
(subcard number of the receiving port on a centralized device or slot number of the receiving

port on a distributed device) and port (port number of the receiving port). The value of the

sub-option type is 1, and the value of the circuit ID type is 0.

{

Sub-option 2—Contains the MAC address of the DHCP relay agent interface or the MAC
address of the DHCP snooping device that received the client's request. The value of the

sub-option type is 2, and that of the remote ID type is 0. It has the same format as sub-option 2

in normal padding format. See

Option 184

Option 184 is a reserved option, and parameters in the option can be defined as needed. The switch
supports Option 184 carrying voice related parameters, so a DHCP client with voice functions can get an

IP address along with specified voice parameters from the DHCP server.
Option 184 involves the following sub-options:

Sub-option 1—IP address of the primary network calling processor, which serves as the network
calling control source and provides program downloads.

Sub-option 2—IP address of the backup network calling processor that DHCP clients will contact
when the primary one is unreachable.

Sub-option 3—Voice VLAN ID and the result whether DHCP clients take this ID as the voice VLAN
or not.

Sub-option 4—Failover route that specifies the destination IP address and the called number (SIP
users use such IP addresses and numbers to communicate with each other) that a SIP user uses to

reach another SIP user when both the primary and backup calling processors are unreachable.

NOTE:

For Option 184, you must define sub-option 1 to make other sub-options take effect.
