Option 43 configuration L3 Swit

[Terence Payet]

Hi expert,

I want to configure option 43 on a cisco 4500, and wanted to know on how to go about it.

Basically I want to include a URL of a management server + username and password.

note that the dhcp server is on the 4500.

thanks in advance.

regards,

Steve

Hi Terence,

did you try with a config like this (example)?

ip dhcp pool TEST
 network 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0
 default-router 10.0.0.1
 dns-server 10.1.1.10
 domain-name your-domain.com

and then just add option 43 in either hex or ascii:

 option 43 ascii “Comma Separated IP Address List”

 option 43 hex "hex string"

I hope that helps.

Regards,

Markus
