Do these switches support option 66?
If not, how should I configure my Polycom phones to work with it, or should I get a different type of switch?

Hello,
The latest firmware version (1.3.5) for these switches has actually added option 66 to the GUI for the DHCP server.
So yes, these switches do support option 66, just make sure you upgrade to the latest firmware and bootcode and it will be listed when you setup a DHCP network pool.
Make sure you upgrade the bootcode as well, both are required.
Thank you for choosing Cisco,

Hi Cramer, please advise if this is what you're asking here is a sample config
vlan database
vlan 100
exit
interface vlan 100
ip address 10.90.0.1 255.255.255.0
exit
ip dhcp server
ip dhcp pool network Phone
address low 10.90.0.10 high 10.90.0.254 255.255.255.0
lease infinite
next-server-name http://myphone.company.com
default-router 10.90.0.1
time-server 10.0.90.2
dns-server 10.90.0.3

How do I translate this from a Cisco 3560 to this switch?
ip dhcp pool Aastra
network 10.90.0.0 255.255.255.0
option 66 ascii http://myphone.company.com/sip-ps
default-router 10.90.0.1
dns-server X.X.X.X
I have it upgraded to 1.3.5. But I'm not able to get the correct syntax in the SG300 to get it working. It wont allow me to use the domain name or the /sip-ps.
ip dhcp server
ip dhcp pool network NAME
address low 172.31.253.10 high 172.31.253.62 255.255.255.0
lease infinite
next-server 10.0.0.15
next-server-name sip-ps
default-router 172.31.253.1
time-server X.X.X.X
dns-server X.X.X.X
exit

Hello Cramer,
Tom's sample config above should work just fine. For some reason the GUI won't let you enter anythign but letters for the next-server-name, but if you do it through CLI it should work just fine. I tested it here in my lab as well.
I am going to go ahead and get a bug together for the GUI not working properly with that, but for now I'd say using CLI to set those options should work just fine.
Let us know how it goes,
Christopher Ebert

Thanks. I will try this Monday. Yes the gui wouldn't allow me to enter the info I needed for option 66. I will update this post on Monday.
