      Yeah, if you set it there you get, for example:

      interface "vtnet0" {
      
      	supersede interface-mtu 0;
      # DHCP Protocol Timing Values
      
      # DHCP Protocol Options
      	send dhcp-class-identifier "100008,0001,,pfsense 2.4";
      
      	script "/usr/local/sbin/pfSense-dhclient-script";
      }
      

      But automatic outbound NAT rules are still created.

        @stephenw10 Hi Steve,

        yes this setting worked since years until now :-)

        Can you tell me where the mentioned interface config file is located at?
        I will compare the file if I add the addition options by config file and by gui setting.

        can you tel me at which gui field this option 60 has to be added?

        • Send options
        • Request options (Option 55)
        • Require options
        • Option Modifiers

        thanks for your reply, I will test it as soon as possible.

        regards Angelo

          It's set in 'Send Options'.
          The file is /var/etc/dhclient_wan.conf, assuming it's your WAN interface.

            Seems to working...not tested on prod system yet

            but adding

            dhcp-class-identifier "100008,0001,,pfsense 2.4"
            

            to send options genereates the following config file, which matches my old config method. And Outbound NAT Rules are created!

            interface "em0" {
            
                    supersede interface-mtu 0;
            # DHCP Protocol Timing Values
            
            # DHCP Protocol Options
                    send dhcp-class-identifier "100008,0001,,pfsense 2.4";
            
                    script "/usr/local/sbin/pfSense-dhclient-script";
            }
            

            I'm going to test this on prod asap! thanks Steve!

              Changed WAN Interface Config on 2.4.5-p1, created a backup and performed a fresh installation with 2.5.2.

              working now :-)

              thanks for your support

                I'm using RAM drives, /var is showing up multiple times on dashboard System Status. Is this known?

                    @noplan No... just mentioned it... its off-topic... if you are mod, you can delete :-)
                    issue was just the dhcp settings on WAN.

                        In 2.5.2? Are you using ZFS?

                        That seems familiar though I'm not hitting it here... 🤔

                        Edit: Yup, this: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12144

                        It's ugly but just cosmetic.

                          Yes, ZFS after reinstalled 2.5.2. Bug seems to be known and would be fixed someday... as you said, its just cosmetic :-)
