Vendor Specific Input Options
Item | Description |
---|
Input Type • String—1 • Hex—1 • Byte Decimal—1 • Byte Hex—1 • Long Decimal—4 • Log Hex—4 • IPv4 address—4 • IPv6 address—16 |
Strings | Normal strings. The length must be specified as 0, the length of the string or longer. If the length is set to 0, the string length is calculated. If the string length is longer than the string, the string is zero padded to that length. |
Bytes | One-byte unsigned integers which can hold a value between 0 and 255. The only difference between Byte Hex and Byte Long is how they are formatted in the GUI. |
Longs | Four-byte unsigned integers which can hold a number between 0 and 4294967295. The only difference between Long Hex and Byte Long is how they are formatted in the GUI. |
IPv4 Address | Raw IPv4 address (for example, 142.111.1.1) |
IPv6 Address | Raw IPv6 address (for example, daaf::1) |
Hex types | Specifies what the DHCP server actually receives. With this data type, you can enter anything that the server understands. The data should be formatted with two hex numbers followed by a colon (for example, 01:23:45:67:89:ab:cd:ef). This string has a length value of 8. Hex types and Strings share the same length rules. |
