the DHCP clients information about certain services such as PXE. In such an environment, the standard DHCP
options 60 and 43 cannot be used for Alcatel-Lucent APs.
This method describes how to set up a DHCP server to send option 43 with Omnivista information to AOS-W
InstantOAW-IAP. This section assumes that option 43 is sent per scope, because option 60 is being shared by
other devices as well.
The DHCP scope must be specific to Instant, and the PXE devices that use options 60 and 43 must not connect to
the subnet defined by this scope. This is because you can specify only one option 43 for a scope, and if other
devices that use option 43 connect to this subnet, they are presented with Instant-specific information.
1. In server 2008, navigate to Server Manager > Roles > DHCP Server > Domain DHCP Server > IPv4.
2. Select a scope (subnet). Scope (10.169.145.0)145 is selected in the example shown in the figure below.
3. Right-click and select Advanced, and then specify the following options:
n Vendor class— DHCP Standard Options
n User class— Default User Class
n Available options— Select 043 Vendor-Specific Info
n String Value— Alcatel-LucentInstantAP, tme-store4, 10.169.240.8, Alcatel-Lucent123 (which is the AP
description, organization string, Omnivista IP address or domain name, Pre-shared key, for Omnivista)
Figure 95 Vendor Specific DHCP options
Upon completion, the OAW-IAP shows up as a new device in Omnivista, and a new group called tme-store4 is
created. Navigate to APs/Devices > New > Group to view this group.
