DHCP Option 119

N

Nathan Spear

Is Option 119 available for Windows Server 2003 DHCP servers? I would
like to use this option to distribute a DNS Suffix Search List to
clients.

Thanks for your reply.

Hello Nathan,

Microsoft clients don't request option 119 so you cannot use DHCP to
distribute a DNS Suffix search list to them. The following articles discuss
ways to distribute a suffix search list.
