Today's Topics: 1. Correct use of DHCP option 97 (Arzhel Younsi) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2023 12:30:54 +0100 From: Arzhel Younsi <ayou...@wikimedia.org> To: dhcp-users@lists.isc.org Subject: Correct use of DHCP option 97 Message-ID: <CAD236MiznFSmkBPcoj-FC=xt-ymnch7q2mcw5dfcsxmcrjk...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Hi, We're currently using DHCP option 82 (circuit id) to identify servers during their initial bootstrapping with the following ISC-DHCP 4.4.1 configuration: host sretest1004 { host-identifier option agent.circuit-id "lsw1-e8-eqiad:Ethernet0.0:private1-e8-eqiad"; fixed-address 10.64.158.2; option pxelinux.pathprefix " http://apt.wikimedia.org/tftpboot/bullseye-installer/"; } This is working fine but option 82 has been more and more problematic to use, so I've been looking at using option 97 instead as the server's serial # is embedded in the UUID/GUID sent by PXE. You can see below the output of dhcpdump. Note that the server's PXE doesn't send option 61 (client-identifier). log(binary-to-ascii(16, 8, ":", option pxe-client-id)); does return 0:44:45:4c:4c:5a:0:10:59:80:5a:c4:c0:4f:51:50:32 Which fits what's in Wireshark: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F41504283 But I tried all the combinations I could think of to match on it, with no success. For example: host-identifier option pxe-client-id 0 00:44:45:4c:4c:5a:00:10:59:80:5a:c4:c0:4f:51:50:32; host-identifier option pxe-client-id 0 44:45:4c:4c:5a:00:10:59:80:5a:c4:c0:4f:51:50:32; (in case the initial 00: was the type). With quotes, with an additional 01: or ff: prefix, without the "host-identifier" statement. With "dhcp-client-identifier" instead, just in case. Similarly with the GUID: host-identifier option pxe-client-id 0 "4c4c4544-005a-5910-805a-c4c04f515032"; host-identifier option pxe-client-id 0 4c:4c:45:44:00:5a:59:10:80:5a:c4:c0:4f:51:50:32; etc, still no success. Does anyone have any pointers on how to get it to match on the option 97 value ?
