Add Option for Vendor Class ID in DHCP Client
Added by Kris Phillips about 1 year ago.

Category:
DHCP Client (IPv4)
Description
Some ISPs require a Vendor Class ID be sent (option 60) when requesting DHCP. This can currently be accomplished in pfSense with vendor-class-identifier manually added to a dhcp config file, but adding this as a field would be helpful.

It is possible to do this already using the Send Options field in the advanced dhcp client options.
However a separate field makes it much clearer.
With only option 60 there could be a caveat described here https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13279
You also need to add request options (option 55) like subnet-mask,routers,domain-name-servers,domain-name,static-routes to make it work correctly.
