Title: Mitel 5000 DHCP Server
Post by: acejavelin on September 20, 2017, 04:47:45 PM

Anybody figure out how to set multiple DNS servers in the Mitel 5000's embedded DHCP server?

If I build a a DHCP option 6 and set it for IP Address, it only allow one IP address... and it works, but if I want a primary and secondary DNS server how can I set that up? If I set it for ASCII and put in 2 IP's a PC fails to get any valid DHCP address at all.

Not pleasant, but....it's just dnsmasq so I believe the conf file is in /usr/local/intl/etc/ or somewhere in there.  You could do nano dnsmasq.conf and put in your DNS servers.  It "should" / survive a reboot until a setting is changed in IP settings.

acejavelin,

I am pretty sure that I have done this before, but I am not in front of a system right now to figure it out again.

Have you tried putting one in as a Global and one in as a Specific IP Range?

How did you create the string for the ASCII version? 8.8.8.8;8.8.4.4

Thanks,

TE

No, I set it to "8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4" maybe I will try it with the semi-colon instead and report back.

You could also try with a space. i.e. 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
