Set DHCP Server Options

DHCP scope options allow you to auto configure additional TCP/IP settings on the client devices.

DHCP options can be configured at two different levels, at the server or per each DHCP scope.

I prefer at each scope, it’s more work but I may have scopes such as guest wifi that I don’t want using the internal DNS. Sometimes VOIP phones need special options to configure and I don’t want that at the server level.

The most common options used are:

003 Router

006 DNS servers

015 DNS Domain Name

Take advantage of the scope options so you can auto configure the IP settings on all devices.
