What is Option 82?

Understanding Option 82

Option 82 is a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) relay agent information option that allows network devices to insert additional information, such as the physical location or VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) of a DHCP client, into DHCP messages. This option is commonly used in networks with multiple subnets to provide more granular control over IP address assignment and network configurations.
