<div><p>DHCP has many configuration options that can be sent to the client
when they request information from the DHCP server. You can use a lookup tool
that describes all of the DHCP options.</p>
<div class="section"><p>DHCP options define additional configuration data that the DHCP
server passes along to clients in addition to an IP address. Typical options
include subnet mask, domain name, router IP addresses, domain name server
IP addresses, and static routes.</p>
<div class="p">Standard DHCP options, based on definitions
in RFC 2132: DHCP Options and BOOTP Vendor Extensions are described in the
following table. You might also configure customized options using the DHCP <span class="uicontrol">Options</span> page
