Configuring for OmniVista Discovery through DHCP
The Omnivista can be discovered through DHCP server. You can configure this only if Omnivista was not configured
earlier or if you have deleted the precedent configuration.
On the DHCP server, the format for option 60 is “InstantAP“, and the two formats for option 43 are
“<organization>,<ams-ip>,<ams-key>” and “<organization>,<ams-domain>” .
If you use the <organization>,<ams-ip>,<ams-key> format, the PSK-based authentication is used to access the
OmniVista Management Platform server.
If you use the <organization>,<ams-domain> format, the OAW-IAP resolves the domain name into two IP
address as OmniVista Primary OmniVista Backup, and then OAW-IAP will start a certificate-based authentication
with OmniVista Management platform server, instead of the PSK login.
For option 43 when you choose to enter the domain name, the IP address and key will not be available.
Standard DHCP option 60 and 43 on Windows Server 2008
In networks that are not using DHCP option 60 and 43, it is easy to use the standard DHCP options 60 and 43 for an
AP or OAW-IAP. For APs, these options can be used to indicate the master controller or the local controller. For
OAW-IAPs, these options can be used to define the Omnivista IP, group, password, and domain name.
1. From a server running Windows Server 2008 navigate to Server Manager> Roles> DHCP
sever>domain DHCP Server > IPv4.
2. Right-click IPv4 and select Set Predefined Options.
