NOTE: For more information on file naming rules, see Configuring servers and server components using Auto Config. • Sharename (-n) - Indicates the name of the network share. • ShareType (-s) - Indicates the share type. 0 indicates NFS and 2 indicates CIFS. NOTE: Alongside supporting NFS and CIFS-based file sharing, iDRAC firmware also supports accessing profile files by using HTTP and HTTPS. The -s option flag is updated as follows: -s (ShareType): type nfs or 0 for NFS; cifs or 2 for CIFS; http or 5 for HTTP; or https or 6 for HTTPS. • IPAddress (-i) - Indicates the IP address of the file share. NOTE: Sharename (-n), ShareType (-s), and IPAddress (-i) are required attributes that must be passed. • Username (-u) - Indicates the user name required to access the network share. This information is required only for CIFS. • Password (-p) - Indicates the password required to access the network share. This information is required only for CIFS. • ShutdownType (-d) - Indicates the mode of shutdown. 0 indicates Graceful shutdown and 1 indicates Forced shutdown. NOTE: The default setting is 0. • Timetowait (-t) - Indicates the time the host system waits before shutting down. The default setting is 300. • EndHostPowerState (-e) - Indicates the power state of the host. 0 indicates OFF and 1 indicates ON. The default setting is 1. NOTE: ShutdownType (-d), Timetowait (-t), and EndHostPowerState (-e) are optional attributes. • ProxyDefault (-pd) - Indicates to use default proxy setting (Optional). • ProxyType (-pt) - type http or socks(default setting http) (Optional). • ProxyHost (-ph) - IP address of the proxy host (Optional). • ProxyUserName - (-pu) Indicates the user name that has access to the proxy server (mandatory for proxy support). • ProxyPassword - (-pp) Indicates the user password that has access to the proxy server (mandatory for proxy support). • ProxyPort (-po) - port for the proxy server (default setting 80) (Optional). • Timeout (to) - indicates the retry timeout in minutes for obtaining Profile file (default setting=60) NOTE: On DHCP servers running Windows the operating system with iDRAC version prior to 2.20.20.20, make sure that you add a space before the (-f).

The steps to configure the options are similar to the steps for Windows: 1. Set aside a block or pool of addresses that this DHCP server can allocate. 2. Set the option 43 and use the name vendor class identifier for option 60. option myname code 43 = text; subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 { #default gateway option routers 192.168.0.1; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option nis-domain "domain.org"; option domain-name "domain.org"; option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1; option time-offset -18000; # Eastern Standard Time option vendor-class-identifier "iDRAC"; set vendor-string = option vendor-class-identifier; option myname "-f system_config.xml -i 192.168.0.130 -u user -p password -n cifs -s 2 -d 0 -t 500"; range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.128 192.168.0.254; default-lease-time 21600; max-lease-time 43200; } } The following are the required and optional parameters that must be passed in the vendor class identifier string: • Filename (-f) - Indicates the name of the exported Server Configuration Profile XML file. Specifying the filename is optional with iDRAC version 2.20.20.20 or later.

Configuring option 43 and option 60 on Linux
Update the
/etc/dhcpd.conf
file. The steps to configure the options are similar to the steps for Windows:
1.
Set aside a block or pool of addresses that this DHCP server can allocate.
2.
Set the option 43 and use the name vendor class identifier for option 60.
option myname code 43 = text
;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0
{
#default gateway
option routers
192.168.0.1;
option subnet-mask
255.255.255.0;
option nis-domain
"domain.org";
option domain-name
"domain.org";
option domain-name-servers
192.168.1.1;
option time-offset
-18000;
# Eastern Standard Time
option vendor-class-identifier "iDRAC";
set vendor-string = option vendor-class-identifier;
option myname "-f system_config.xml -i 192.168.0.130 -u user -p password -n cifs -s 2 -d 0 -t 500";
range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.128 192.168.0.254;
default-lease-time 21600;
max-lease-time 43200;
}
}
The following are the required and optional parameters that must be passed in the vendor class identifier string:
Filename (–f) — Indicates the name of the exported Server Configuration Profile XML file. Specifying the filename is optional with
iDRAC version 2.20.20.20 or later.
NOTE:
