The DHCP client in LANCOM can insert additional information in the DHCP request sent, which simplify request recognition within the network.
- The vendor class identifier (DHCP option 60) shows the device type, e.g. 'LANCOM L-54'. The vendor class ID is always transmitted.
- The user class identifier (DHCP option 77) displays a user-defined string, which can be entered under Setup/DHCP or in LANconfig in the configuration area under 'TCP/IP' on the 'DHCP' tab in the 'User Class ID' field (default: empty). The user class ID is only transmitted when the user has configured a value.
