Server Administration

Customizing the Site-Specific Option Number (SSON)

As discussed in DHCP Generic Setup on page 4-7,the SSON, defined to be 176 for the 4600 Series IP Telephones, can be set to a string. For each system parameter listed in Table 4-4that you want to include, append the following to the SSON string:

a comma followed by name=value

where name is a parameter name and value is its associated value. Invalid values will cause the data to be ignored for that name. Customizing the SSON will affect all telephones associated with that DHCP server.
