DHCP Option 43 is not deliverd by DHCP service

Hello everyone

Sophos XG SFOS 17.5.5 MR-5 in use.

We have Huawei AP's and one AC in our environment in different subnets. 


I have added a DHCP option 43 in console using following command to make the AP's in a subnet work:

system dhcp dhcp-options binding add dhcpname Blabla optionname Vendor_Encapsulated_Options(43) value '0104XXXXXXXX'

 

By using 

system dhcp dhcp-options binding show dhcpname Blabla

the following output will be shown.

Options Configured from GUI

---------------------------

Domain_Name                                                 

Subnetmask                                                  255.255.255.0

Default_Gateway                                             X.X.X.x

Domain_Name_Servers                                         X.X.X.X

Options Configured from CLI

---------------------------

Vendor_Encapsulated_Options(43)                             "01040A00FA0A"

 

So it seems like the option code is configured and ready.

But if I request a new DHCP lease. The ACK-Packet does not contain the DHCP Option.

Do I need to restart the firewall? Any idea how to get it to deliver the DHCP option?

I appreciate your inputs

Cheers Yanick

  • Just found out that the access points dont get any DHCP ACK at all. Laptop receives DHCP ACK succesfully and therefore is able to receive IP Leases with no problem.

    EDIT:

    The AP does get an ACk and also gets an IP but it is stuck then because it doesnt seem to receive the option 43.
