• Domain Name Server IP Address (Option 6)—Select one of the devices DNS servers
(if already configured) or select Other and enter the IP address of the DNS server
available to the DHCP client.
• Domain Name (Option 15)—Enter the domain name for a DHCP client.
• NetBIOS WINS Server IP Address (Option 44)— Enter the NetBIOS WINS name
server available to a DHCP client.
• NetBIOS Node Type (Option 46)—Select how to resolve the NetBIOS name. Valid
node types are:
- Hybrid—A hybrid combination of b-node and p-node is used. When configured to
use h-node, a computer always tries p-node first and uses b-node only if p-node
fails. This is the default.
- Mixed—A combination of b-node and p-node communications is used to register
and resolve NetBIOS names. M-node first uses b-node; then, if necessary, p-node.
M-node is typically not the best choice for larger networks because its preference
for b-node Broadcasts increases network traffic.
- Peer-to-Peer—Point-to-point communications with a NetBIOS name server are
used to register and resolve computer names to IP addresses.
- Broadcast—IP Broadcast messages are used to register and resolve NetBIOS names
to IP addresses.
• SNTP Server IP Address (Option 4)— Select one of the device's SNTP servers (if
already configured) or select Other and enter the IP address of the time server for the
DHCP client.
• File Server IP Address (siaddr)—Enter the IP address of the TFTP/SCP server from
which the configuration file is downloaded.
• File Server Host Name (sname/Option 66)—Enter the name of the TFTP/SCP server.
• Configuration File Name (file/Option 67)—Enter the name of the file that is used as
a configuration file.
Click Apply. The Running Configuration file is updated.
Excluded Addresses
By default, the DHCP server assumes that all pool addresses in a pool may be assigned to
clients. A single IP address or a range of IP addresses can be excluded. The excluded
addresses are excluded from all DHCP pools.
