Below is an example of the Linux dhcpd DHCPv4 server configuration file containing an example of
site-specific option 224. The example option’s data configures the phone to enable the Bluetooth
radio, disable the PC port, disable the USB interface and disable LLDP.
dhcpd.conf
…
# This line sets the tag Avaya-Custom-Phone to the numeric option
option Avaya-Custom-Phone code 224 = string;
...
class "Avaya11xx12xxSIP" {
# This limits this option to the 11xx12xx SIP phones
match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 18) = "Nortel-SIP-Phone-A";
# This line puts the auto-provisioning parameters in the option
option Avaya-Custom-Phone "Nortel-SIP-Phone-B,bt=y;pc=n;usb=n;lldp=n;";
…
}
…
The following is an example of the similar handling but for the Open DHCP Server’s configuration
file.
OpenDHCPServer.ini
# Custom options for Avaya 1100 and 1200 SIP phones
[RANGE_SET]
# This filter limits the items in this [RANGE_SET] to the 11xx12xx SIP phones
FilterVendorClass="Nortel-SIP-Phone-A"
# This line defines the auto-provisioning parameters in option 224
224="Nortel-SIP-Phone-B,bt=y;pc=n;usb=n;lldp=n;"
