SNMP Support
A MIB object supports enabling and disabling the DHCP Option 12 feature. It
is added in the hpicfDhcpclient.mib. The hostname is retrieved from the MIB
variable SYSNAME. Validity checks on the name include:
■
The name starts with a letter, ends with a letter or a digit, and can have
letters, hyphens, or digits in between the first and last characters.
■
The maximum size supported for a hostname is 30 characters. If
SYSNAME is more than 30 characters, then DHCP Option 12 will not be
included in the packet.
■
The minimum number of characters supported for a hostname is one
character. If the SYSNAME in the MIB is null, then DHCP Option 12 will
not be included in the packet.
