Administering The Dhcp Server; Http Generic Setup - Avaya 9608 Administrator's Manual

4. Setting the option-data portion of the vendor-specific option with any or all of the applicable
parameters. For information about the parameters, see bullet list in
server for the DHCP site-specific option.
Additionally, the parameters DOMAIN and DNSSRVR can be set in other numbered options
by DHCP. These parameters can also be set in the Avaya DHCPv6 vendor-specific option.
Result
The vendor-specific option is processed after the DHCP fields and standard options. As such, any
values set using the VSI will supersede any values that are set using DHCP fields or standard
options, as well as any other previously set values.

Administering the DHCP server

This document describes how to administer a single LAN segment, which is the simplest
configuration. But you can use the same information for more complex LAN configurations.
Caution:
Before you start, understand your current network configuration. An improper installation might
cause network failures or reduce the reliability and performance of your network.

HTTP generic setup

About this task
You can store the same application software, script file, and settings file on an HTTP server as you
can on a TFTP server. The 9600 Series IP Deskphones do not support TFTP. With proper
administration, the 9600 Series IP Deskphone seeks out and uses the application software, script
file, and settings file. The 9600 Series IP Deskphone might lose some functionality, if you reset the
HTTP server or the HTTP server is unavailable. For more information, see
and File Servers on page 49.
Caution:
Ensure that the files defined by the HTTP server configuration are accessible from all 9600
Series IP Deskphones that need those files. Ensure that the file names match the names in the
upgrade script, including case, as UNIX systems are case-sensitive.
Note:
Use any suitable HTTP application. Commonly used HTTP applications include Apache
