To prevent any interruption in service, the DHCP lease time should be set to infinite
whenever possible, though Strix recommends configuring a reservation for each
Access/One Network module regardless of the lease time. Doing so will avoid any
unanticipated problems and maintain management consistency. All modules within
your Access/One Network require the following RFC 2132 option numbers to be
specified:
Examples of DHCP servers include (but are not limited to):
◗ Windows 200X Server
◗ Cisco IOS
◗ Linux
◗ Sun OS
Option Title Description
1 Subnet Mask Network subnet mask, as applied to the given IP
address.
2 Time Offset Number of hours the DHCP client will add or
subtract from SNTP time.
3 Default Router Specifies the default gateway for this network
segment.
6 DNS Server Specifies one or two DNS servers (by priority).
12 Host Name Specifies the unique system name of the module.
15 Domain Name Specifies the domain name for this network. This is
used to fully qualify any hostname operations that
the module may generate (for example, ping node1
= ping node1.strixsystems.com). This applies to
module operations only and does not affect users.
42 NTP Server Specifies the NTP server IP address (local or
Internet).
