DHCP option 119 is for DHCP domain search. In traditional DHCPD on SRX, the command 'set system services dhcp domain-search' supports option 119.

In new JDHCPD, SRX no longer have this command. Configuring option 119 is a manual task.

Here is an example of how to configure option 119 on SRX for new JDHCPD. This example configures SRX to offer domain search for 'jnpr.net' and 'juniper.net'.

Topology:

To support option 119 on JDHCPD, 'hex-string' is needed. Tools for converting text to hex can be found on the Internet. Here is the explanation for hex-string.

• jnpr.net

  j    n    p   r   .    n   e   t
  6a 6e 70 72 2e 6e 65 74

• juniper.net

  j    u   n   i    p   e   r    .   n   e    t
  6a 75 6e 69 70 65 72 2e 6e 65 74

The client expects the full domain to be split (get rid of the separating periods "2e"), with each section prefixed by it's length (e.g. 4 jnpr 3 net) and then the whole string is null terminated "00").

Based on the above rule:

Here is SRX configuration:

set interfaces ge-0/0/3 unit 0 family inet address 20.20.20.1/24
set security zones security-zone trust host-inbound-traffic system-services all
set security zones security-zone trust host-inbound-traffic protocols all
set security zones security-zone trust interfaces ge-0/0/3.0

set system services dhcp-local-server group hawk interface ge-0/0/3.0
set access address-assignment pool hawk family inet network 20.20.20.0/24
set access address-assignment pool hawk family inet range 1 low 20.20.20.10

set access address-assignment pool hawk family inet dhcp-attributes router 20.20.20.1
set access address-assignment pool hawk family inet dhcp-attributes propagate-settings ge-0/0/3
set access address-assignment pool hawk family inet dhcp-attributes option 119 array hex-string 046a6e7072036e657400
set access address-assignment pool hawk family inet dhcp-attributes option 119 array hex-string 076a756e69706572036e657400

After DHCP client obtains the IP address:

[root@localhost ~]# ifconfig eno33557248
eno33557248: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500

From tcpdump, we can see SRX offer option 119 to client.
