To configure DHCP Option 43 in the embedded Cisco IOS DHCP server, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1 Enter configuration mode at the Cisco IOS CLI.
Step 2 Create the DHCP pool, including the necessary parameters such as default router and name server. A DHCP
scope example is as follows:
Example:
ip dhcp pool <pool name>
network <IP Network> <Netmask>
default-router <Default router>
dns-server <DNS Server>
Here:
Example:
<pool name>: is the name of the DHCP pool, such as AP9136I
<IP Network>: is the network IP address where the controller resides, such as 10.0.15.1
<Netmask>: is the subnet mask, such as 255.255.255.0
<Default router>: is the IP address of the default router, such as 10.0.0.1
<DNS Server>: is the IP address of the DNS server, such as 10.0.10.2
Step 3 Add the Option 43 line using the following syntax:
Example:
option 43 hex <hex string>
The hex string is assembled by concatenating the following TLV values:
Type + Length + Value
For example, if there are two controllers with management interface IP addresses, 10.126.126.2 and
10.127.127.2, the type is f1(hex), the length is 2 * 4 = 8 = 08 (hex), and the IP addresses translate to 0a7e7e02
and 0a7f7f02. Assembling the string then yields f1080a7e7e020a7f7f02. The resulting Cisco IOS command
added to the DHCP scope is option 43 hex f1080a7e7e020a7f7f02.
