Hello,
I also tried like this:
{
"name": "bookworm",
"boot-file-name": "ifelse(option[client-system].hex == 0x0000
or option[client-system].hex == 0x0006, '/linf/bookworm/boot/current-
amd64/pxelinux.0', '/linf/bookworm/boot/current-amd64/syslinux.efi')"
}
But unfortunately, as I already had suspected, kea interprets the whole
"ifelse ... syslinux.efi')" string as the filename (and then complains
that it is to long)- Is it possible, probably by another syntax, to
tell kea that it is an expression?
Regards
Christoph
