Info
titleNOTE:

Option 12 and Option 42 are only supported in PICOS 4.4.4.3.

DHCP options are additional parameters that can be passed from a DHCP server to DHCP clients during the IP address assignment process. These options provide additional configuration information beyond just the IP address and subnet mask. In addition to supporting Option 82, PICOS also supports Option 12 and Option 42.

...

Option 12: This option is used to specify the hostname of the DHCP client. When a DHCP client requests an IP address from a DHCP server, it can include its hostname in the DHCP request message using Option 12. The DHCP server can then use this information to assign a hostname to the client along with its IP address lease.
