You should configure the DHCP server in such a way that when a IP Device issues an IP address query, the server automatically transmits the IP address and port number of the DLS along with the IP address and address of the DNS and default router to the IP Device. After this process, the IP Device can contact the DLS.

This additional information may be provided by the DHCP server in the form of vendor classes. This method is illustrated below :

The following example explains how to set up a new vendor class, assign options to the class, and define the scope of the new class.

1. In the Windows Start menu, select Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > DHCP.

Setting up a new vendor class

2. In the DHCP console menu, right-click the DHCP server in question and select Define Vendor Classes... in the context menu.

3. A dialog window opens with a list of the classes that are already available.

Click Add... to add a new class.




4. Define a new vendor class with the name OptiIpPhone for IP phones (or opticlient for optiClients) and enter a description of this class.


Click OK to apply the changes. The new vendor class now appears in the list.

Exit the window with Close.

Adding options to the new vendor class

5. In the DHCP console, right-click the DHCP server in question and select Set Predefined Options... in the context menu

6. In the dialog window, select the class that you just defined (OptiIpPhone) and click Add... to add a new option.

7. Enter the data for the new option.

Give this option a name and select the data type in the Data type field according to the option to be configured: •01: String •02: Long •03: String •04: String Enter the tag number corresponding to the current option in the field Code: •01: 1 •02: 2 •03: 3 •04: 4 Additionally, a description description for this option should be entered in the field Description.

Click OK to apply the changes.

8. Enter the value for this option.


The two options required are:



  • Minimum hardware requirements for the Single Node DLS Server :
Vendor
CPU 3.1 GHz CPU (Intel Xeon E3-1220,4C/4T)
RAM 8 GB
Ethernet 100 MBit (1 GBit is recommended)
