Vendor Options For Specific Vendors/Enterprise Numbers

[Shweta]

Hello,

I am using dhcpd 4.3.5.
I have set up my server to return vendor specific options for a particular enterprise number.
The server is returning these vendor specific options even if the client is requesting Vendor Specific Information - Option 17 - for a different enterprise number passed via Vendor Class - Option 16.
Has anyone faced this issue or is it a known issue?

On looking into the code, found the following in common/tables.c:
#if 0
        /* XXX: user-class contents are of the form "StA" where the
         * integer describes the length of the text field.  We don't have
         * an atom for pre-determined-length octet strings yet, so we
         * can't quite do these two.
         */
        { "user-class", "X",                    &dhcpv6_universe, 15, 1 },
        { "vendor-class", "X",                  &dhcpv6_universe, 16, 1 },
#endif

It looks like vendor-class support is not present, which can be the reason for not having the 1:1 associaton between the class and the options.
The latest code dhcp-4.4.1 also has the above code commented.
Could you confirm that this support of not returning vendor options for specific enterprise numbers is because the above snippet is commented?
Any idea when this support will be added?

option space abcd code width 2 length width 2 hash size 100;
option vsio.abcd code 4231 = encapsulate abcd;
option abcd.vendopt1 code 1 = text;

subnet6 2001:4201:0:50::/64 {
range6 2001:4201:0:50::2 2001:4201:0:50::149;
option abcd.vendopt1 "HelloWorld";
}

In the above, the vendor option set for enterprise number 4231 is sent for vendclass 4118.

Thanks,
Shweta
