Topic: A little help with DHCP Options

The content of this topic has been archived on 23 Mar 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

I am working on a project where OpenWRT should request a custom DHCP Option I have setup (214), but I am new to working with DHCP Options and can use a bit of assistance.

I did a packet capture and can confirm my Mikrotik is broadcasting option 214 with the proper string I have set when OpenWRT requests an IP using "option reqopts 214".

The problem is I cannot tell where OpenWRT stores these values if it receives them. Is it only set to understand a few common dhcp options? Is there another config file somewhere that I can specify where these values get stored? Thanks.

The discussion might have continued from here.
