Standard DHCP Options 60 and 43 on Windows Server 2008
In networks that are not using DHCP options 60 and 43, it is easy to use the standard DHCP
options 60 and 43 for an AP or AP. For APs, these options can be used to indicate the
master controller or the local controller. For APs, these options can be used to define the
AirWave IP, group, password, and domain name.
1. From a server running Windows Server 2008, navigate to Server Manager > Roles >
DHCP sever > domain > DHCP Server > IPv4.
2. Right-click IPv4 and select Set Predefined Options.
3. Select DHCP Standard Options in the Option class drop-down list and then click Add.
4. Enter the following information:
●
Name — Instant
●
Data Type — String
●
Code — 60
●
Description — InstantAP
5. Navigate to Server Manager and select Server Options in the IPv4 window. (This sets the
value globally. Use options on a per-scope basis to override the global options.)
6. Right-click Server Options and select the configuration options.
7. Select 060 Aruba Instant AP in the Server Options window and enter ArubaInstantAP in
the String value text box.
8. Select 043 Vendor Specific Info and enter a value for either of the following in the ASCII
text box:
●
airwave-orgn, airwave-ip, airwave-key; for example:Siemens,192.0.2.20, 12344567
●
airwave-orgn, airwave-domain; for example: Siemens, support.industry.siemens.com
This creates DHCP options 60 and 43 on a global basis. You can do the same on a per-
scope basis. The per- scope option overrides the global option.
