Feature #8173
Updated by Jim Pingle almost 7 years ago
The lack of available options in dhcp6c prevents pfSense from being used with certain ISPs. For example, Orange France require three options to be sent that are not currently supported in dhcp6c. I have now issued a PR upstream at hrs-allbsd/wide-dhcpv6 that allows the use of the Keyword RAW as an option. Here is an example of a part of the config file when using the RAW options. # User class "+FSVDSL_livebox.Internet.softathome.Livebox3"; send raw-option 15 00:2b:46:53:56:44:53:4c:5f:6c:69:76:65:62:6f:78:2e:49:6e:74:65:72:6e:65:74:2e:73:6f:66:74:61:74:68:6f:6d:65:2e:6c:69:76:65:62:6f:78:33; # Vendor class "sagem" send raw-option 16 00:00:04:0e:00:05:73:61:67:65:6d; # Authentication send raw-option 11 00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:65:78:61:6d:70:6c:65; 00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:66:74:69:2f:65:77:74:70:34:39:77; # IA-PD send ia-pd 0; # Requests : authentication, domain-name, domain-name-servers; send raw-option 6 00:0b:00:11:00:17:00:18; Several users have been using the modified version of dhcp6c for several months with no issues, but obliviously it would be better if the version of dhcp6c that ships with pfSense supported this 'out of the box'.
