An Enterprise Number assigned to the vendor of the option by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).

For more information about assigned Enterprise Numbers, developers should refer to the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (RFC 3315) maintained by The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).

The option was found and a pointer to the value was returned.
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
