2.6 Option 184 Supporting Configuration
2.6.1 Introduction to Option 184
Option 184 is an RFC reserved option, and the information it carries can be customized.
H3C defines four proprietary sub-options for this option, enabling the DHCP server to
put the information required by a DHCP client in the response packet to the client.
I. Basic concept
The four sub-options of option 184 mainly carry information about voice. The following
lists the sub-options and the carried information:
z option: An option in a DHCP message. This option may be a field in variable length.
Option contains some lease information and message types. The option field
contains at least one and up to 255 options.
z Sub-option 1: IP address of the network call processor (NCP-IP).
z Sub-option 2: IP address of the alternate server (AS-IP).
z Sub-option 3: Voice VLAN configuration.
z Sub-option 4: Fail-over call routing.
II. Meanings of the sub-options for option 184

Sub-option Feature Function Note
NCP-IP
(sub-option 1)
The NCP-IP
sub-option carries
the IP address of
the network call
processor (NCP).
The IP address of
the NCP server
carried by
sub-option 1 of
option 184 is
intended for
identifying the
server serving as
the network call
controller and the
server used for
application
downloading.
When used in option
184, this sub-option
must be the first
sub-option, that is,
sub-option 1
