Little request : Option DHCP 90

[frederic09]

Hello everyone,

I am happily using a Billion 7800DXL for almost 2 years, and my ISP is doing some changes to his network to accept IPv4/IPv6 through DHCP/IPOE.

But the problem is, it requires to send a string as the option 90 to the DHCP server.

I would like to know if it's possible to add this option.

Thanks in advance,
Frédéric.

ps : Oh and sorry for my english, i am French.

I will check with our engineers,

Thanks for your fast answer. I really hope it will be possible.

If you need some information, the string might be very long.

It starts with 00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:66:74:69:2f:*:*:*:*:*:*:* (and the * is replaced by the login id, converted in hex)

Hello,

I would like to know if there are news about the implemention of the option 90.

Is it doable ? Is it not ?

edit : If the engineers need some help, i found the arguments for dhclient :
---

Code: Select all

option authsend code 90 = string;
send authsend *value*;

But the 7800DXL uses another DHCP client. :'(
