DHCP: Vendor Class Identifier

ppauly
Level 1
Level 1

I need to replicate what is currently being done from a Windows server on a router with DHCP. Specifically, I need to set a class filter for vendor-class-identifier = "MSFT 5.0" and then set option 43 to 0x2B.

I haven't been able to find any examples on the net of how to set this up in IOS. Does anyone have any DHCP examples showing something similar?

Does this help?

Basically, it looks to me like you need to do something like this:

ip dhcp pool MSFT

option 60 ascii "MSFT 5.0"

option 43 hex

Thanks - that does help. After reading the RFC, I assumed it would be more complicated than that.
