ASL 3.2.0: DHCP Client Identifier

Matt Siemens
Hi All,

I just wanted to begin by saying that ASL 3.2.0 is fantastic!  Great job - ASL is an absolute joy to use!  [:)] 

Having said that, there is one minor feature that would be nice to see in a release down the road... My ISP requires a DHCP identifier to be sent to the DHCP server prior to obtaining a lease.  If a valid client id is not sent, no lease is obtained and IP address information doesn't get assigned.

Normally within Linux, I would run the following command to obtain a DHCP lease from my ISP:

  dhcpcd -I CLIENT_ID_HERE eth0

Are there any future plans to support a client id feature?

Cheers,


--Matt

    I am having similar problem.  I was able to get a dynamic IP on the external card but can not renew it once the lease has expired.

    I do not know if this has to do with the capacity of the system being used as firewall, or there is just something missing within astaro to automatically renew IP lease
