Hi Peter,<br><br>thanks for the reply.<br><br>i am new to dhclient stuff , i want to know who initiates request for DHCP option 120 and is there any specific message which is used for same purpose? as you suggested that its the responsibility of application to extract, so will it be the application who initiates this request? in my case its SIP UE which want to obtain to obtain SIP server ip address.<br>

</div>It sounds right. But what software needs this option from dhclient?<br>
<br>
Why would you want dhclient to extract the address? My guess is that the<br>
coding (RFC3361) is common to this application. Whatever software needs<br>
it should be able to decode it by itself.<br>
<br>
Or are you really asking another question?<br>
