Hi rakez,

To define a new option, please try the following steps:

1.Open DHCP Server Management Console.

2.In the console tree, click the applicable DHCP server.

3.Expand your DHCP server.

4.Right click the IPv4 or IPv6, click Set Predefined Options.

5.In Predefined Options and Values, click Add.

6.Select the Option Type ,click add .Type the required information to define the new option, and then click OK.

Please Note: This process is applies to Windows Server 2008 and above editions. By default, standard DHCP options and BOOTP extensions as described in RFC 2132 are predefined for use at DHCP servers running Windows Server 2008.

The Windows Server 2003 classes please refer: Configuring DHCP Options

Hope this helps.

Hello

Additionally, some DHCP options are hidden from the GUI and will need to be added via Netsh:
