I have a project where it would be useful for me to set a custom
client_id when using dhcp to configure a network interface.
Specifically, in my case I'd like to pass the SMBIOS uuid as the
client_id for an infiniband port instead of the port GUID. In my
application, I can guarantee that only one port will be making dhcp
requests to the server, and this would allow my node to get the a
consistent ipaddr/hostname from dnsmasq no matter which port the node
pxe booted from.
I can hack the code for my own purposes, but was wondering if there
might be interest in having this as a general ipxe setting. I'm willing
to do the work and push it if this seems reasonable.
The SMBIOS UUID is already exposed in the DHCP request via the client
UUID option.
