Can the Aspens DHCP server separate and assign SIP phones and PCs different IP addresses?
Yes, the user can configure reserved MAC addresses to be handed static IP addresses. The Aspen controller more importantly has the ability to intelligently hand out IP addresses from a certain DHCP pool based on user configured Vendor MAC OUI. For example, in a VoIP deployment where PCs and for instance Polycom SIP phones are deployed behind the Aspen controller, the user can configure Polycom’s vendor OUI. Then when the PCs and Polycom phones all request DHCP, they will be separated into two pools automatically by the Aspen controller.
