Option 184

Option 184 is a reserved option, and parameters in the option can be defined as needed. The device
supports Option 184 carrying the 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 is a server serving as the
network calling control source and providing program downloads.

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

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