Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

After the client-option37 command is run, the server trusts the information in the Option 37 field of DHCPv6 messages sent by the client and sends the information in the Option 37 field to the RADIUS server. Option37 functions the same as the remote ID of Option 82 in DHCPv4. Option 37 indicates the ID of the broadband user access line, including the system DUID, interface, and VLAN information. Carriers determine how the Option 37 is filled.

Precautions

In VS mode, this command is supported only by the admin VS.

After the client-option37 command is run, if the request packet sent by a client does not carry Option 37, the dhcpv6 option-37 any-format decode enable command can be run so that the packets sent by the BAS to the server carry the default Option 37 (in the format of enterprise code + DUID). If the dhcpv6 option-37 any-format decode enable command is not run, such packets will not carry the default Option 37.

Example

# On GE 0/1/9, configure the server to trust the information in the Option 37 field of the DHCPv6 messages sent by the client.
