DHCP Option 60 for WAN Interface (GPON Fiber)

cyberguy over 5 years ago

Hello.

I have a SFP Fibre Network Connection directly to my ISP (FTTH with GPON box).

To get the WAN link working without ISP Router (a lot of bad stuff on that Router)

I decided to remove the ISP Router, and for do that I need to send DHCP Option 60 for the WAN Interface link.

How do I manage this with Sophos XG? With PFSense is easy to do...but... with XG 18?

I need just a DHCP WAN Interface with DHCP Option 60 setted.

Thank you very much in advance.

No,

I think is not correct.

The articles you gave me explain Sopho's DHCP Server.

In my case of WAN: IS MY ISP the DHCP Server.

in my case, an interface WAN of Sophos XG has to be a DHCP CLIENT

Hi cyberguy

Do you mean ISP will lease DHCP option 60 while leasing DHCP IP to the WAN interface of the Sophos XG?

No,

I mean;

1) My ISP have DHCP Server and assing me an IP

2) on my XG WAN Interface, I must have it in DHCP with Option60

in the artle that you gave me explain how to set the DHCP option on XG DHCP Server. https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/123529

I don't need to use DHCP Server by Sophos. I have to use my ISP DHCP

Correct me if I made mistake.

Thanks
