For more information on DHCP options, go to

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2131.txt?number=2131 or

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2132.txt?number=2132.

Note

The configuration file value for SNTP server address and SNTP GMT offset can

 

be configured to override the DHCP value. Refer to

 

tcpIpApp.sntp.address.overrideDHCP in Time Synchronization <sntp/> on page

 

A-51.

 

The CDP value can be obtained from a connected Ethernet switch if the switch

 

supports CDP.

 

 

 

In the case where you do not have control of your DHCP server or do not have

 

the ability to set the DHCP options, an alternate method of automatically

 

discovering the provisioning server address is required. Connecting to a

 

secondary DHCP server that responds to DHCP INFORM queries with a

 

requested boot server value is one possibility. For more information, refer to

 

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3361.txt?number=3361 and

 

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3925.txt?number=3925.
