Create a DHCP options set

You can create a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) options set to associate with a VPC (Virtual Private Cloud). You can specify one or more NTP (Network Time Protocol) servers and DNS (Domain Name System) servers to use, along with a corresponding domain name.

Numspot automatically provides a default DHCP options set. However, you can create as many custom sets as you want.

You can associate a DHCP options set with a VPC to customize the DHCP configuration used with the VM (Virtual Machine) created in that VPC.
