To send DHCPINFORM: from dhclient

Divakar Y
Hello,

I am using isc-dhcp stack version dhcp-4.3.5.
I am intending to use DHCPINFORM to get vendor-options from the DHCP
server that has offered me the ip.

My dhclient.conf is as below:
     #Option 50 (Address Request) - Previously used IP Address (if available)
        # automatically sent

        #Option 53 (Message Type) - Includes all applicable Client -->
Server Options
        # automatically sent

        #sending vendor class in option 60
        send vendor-class-identifier \""$VENDOR_ID"\";

        #option 61 sends the backplane id as client identifier, used
at server to provide specific attrs
        send dhcp-client-identifier \""$CLIENT_ID"\";

        #request the params from server
        #request subnet-mask, routers, broadcast-address,
vendor-encapsulated-options;
    request vendor-encapsulated-options;

    #dhcp inform
    send dhcp-message-type 8;

From tcpdump, i am able to see that dhclient is sending:
  [root@in-nelnx-dt ~]# tcpdump -i enp16s0 -vvXn port 67
tcpdump: listening on enp16s0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture

On checking the dhcpserver logs:

I observe the ciaddr is coming as 0.0.0.0 , which as RFC2131/2132,
should be valid value that contains the already offered IP.
I dont have relay, so I cant fill, giaddr.
But how do ensure to fill the ciaddr, from the dhclient.conf.

Also the script file:
https://github.com/greearb/dhcp-ct/blob/master/dhclient-script

Can you please guide me how I can do that.

Thanks,
divakar
