DHCP option 66
SET provisioning URL via DHCP option 66
Gigaset is using DHCP option 114 to get provisioning URL, but also we get the request to support the same feature using DHCP option 66.
DHCP option 66 was in the past used for tftp configuration but today it is also used to get the HTTP provisioning URL.
DHCP option 66 is supported by:
