DHCP Priorities
The following flowchart indicates the priorities used by the Access Point when the DHCP server is
configured for multiple options.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the DHCP Server is configured for options 186 and 66 (to assign TFTP Server IP addresses) the
Access Point uses the IP address configured for option 186. Similarly, if the DHCP Server is configured
for options 187 and 67 (for the firmware file) the Access Point uses the file name configured for option
187. If the DHCP Server is configured for embedded and global options, the embedded options take
precedence.
