Use the following procedure to enable/disable DHCP Option 132 VLAN ID using the configuration files.

If you set the phone to use DHCP Option 12, the phone automatically sends this option to the configuration server. This 
option specifies the hostname (name of the client). The name may or may not be qualified with the local domain name 
(based on RFC 2132). See RFC 1035 for character set restrictions.

An Administrator can change the “Hostname” for the DHCP Option 12 via the configuration files, the IP Phone UI, and the 
Aastra Web UI.

For specific parameters you can set in the configuration files, see Appendix A, the section, 

 on 

• The hostname of [<model><MAC address>] automatically populates the field on initial startup of the phone. For 

example, for a 6753i, the “Hostname” field is automatically populated as “53i00085D164435”, where the model 
number is “6753i” and the MAC address is “00085D164435”.

• If the configuration server sends the hostname back to the phone in a DHCP Reply Packet, the hostname is ignored.
