Avaya DHCP Option - secondary/backup gatekeeper

[cmcdan1523]

Is there a way to specify a secondary or backup CLAN IP address in the DHCP option 176/242 in the event of a primary clan failure?

How does it find a secondary clan address?

I cannot find this information in any of the network configuration documents.

Thanks in advance.

You can set multiple clan addresses in the scope, which the phones will use for initial registration but the IP phones will then load balance across all available CLANs automatically whether they are in the scope or not

So do you use a comma between IP addresses?
Something like this?

MCIPADD=x.x.x.x,x.x.x.x

Thanks again.

yes just use a comma as per your post
