Hi, I'm testing dhcrelay and tested successfully with the -a option, but this option generates a circuit-id, Is there an option that I can set the circuit-id and even the remote-id?
Reading the manpage of dhclient and dhcp-options I found:
https://linux.die.net/man/5/dhclient.conf
-----------------------------------------
The send statement
send { [ option declaration ] [, ... option declaration ]}
The send statement causes the client to send the specified options to
the server with the specified values. These are full option
declarations as described in dhcp-options(5).

Relay Agent Information Option
An IETF draft, draft-ietf-dhc-agent-options-11.txt, defines a
series of encapsulated options that a relay agent can add to a
DHCP packet when relaying it to
the DHCP server. The server can then make address allocation
decisions (or whatever other decisions it wants) based on these
options. The server also returns
these options in any replies it sends through the relay agent, so
that the relay agent can use the information in these options for
delivery or accounting
purposes.
The current draft defines two options. To reference these options
in the dhcp server, specify the option space name, "agent",
followed by a period, followed
by the option name. It is not normally useful to define values for
these options in the server, although it is permissible. These
options are not supported in
the client.
option agent.circuit-id string;
- The circuit-id suboption encodes an agent-local identifier of
the circuit from which a DHCP client-to-server packet was
received. It is intended for use by
agents in relaying DHCP responses back to the proper circuit.
The format of this option is currently defined to be
vendor-dependent, and will probably remain
that way, although the current draft allows for for the
possibility of standardizing the format in the future.
- option agent.remote-id string;
- The remote-id suboption encodes information about the remote
host end of a circuit. Examples of what it might contain include
caller ID information,
username information, remote ATM address, cable modem ID, and
similar things. In principal, the meaning is not well-specified,
and it should generally be
assumed to be an opaque object that is administratively
guaranteed to be unique to a particular remote end of a circuit.
- ----------------------------------------------------------
it mentions that these options are not supported on
the client, only on the relay, but looking at dhcrelay does
not have a configuration file, how would you use these options
in a relay. That from what I understand
and does not exist. If anyone
can explain it. Thank you very
much.
