Do I add the Avaya option statement into the subnet pool declaration above or move the Nortel option statement out of the pool declaration and into the class "iphones". I want DHCP to respond with only the correct option matched to the phone.

Looks to me like you've already got it there. Just set the options in the class statement and they'll automatically be applied to the right clients. It gets harder where you need different options for different subnets, but I don't think that's the issue here ?
