    Hello KannanSelvaraj,

    Since August 2021 this option is supported, including 2016, 2019 and 2022 versions

    KannanSelvaraj-6519 - Did you ever get an answer to this? Does any special configuration need to be done on Windows server 2019 / 2022 to get DHCP to hand out addresses with systems that use Option 83 Sub-option 5? I'm trying to get this working, and am not sure if I need to do anything special on the Windows DHCP server, or if it is all on the network switches.

    I am curious to know what would be the Windows DHCP server's behavior if,

    • Windows DHCP server receives a DHCP request packet with an IP address say (10.1.1.10) and packet has option 82's link selection 5 as some different network say (20.1.1.0)?
