      Hi,

      i have test this on pfsense 2.4.3 p1

      i try to had option 160 to DHCP configuration : option 160 type string "http://10.0.0.2/index.php"
      But the dhcp don't present this option on OFFER packet.

      Bug ? or i miss something ?

        Ok i understand why.

        dnsmasq dont push this if the client don't ask for.
        we need to add this options with -force parameters

        i create a request -> https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/8879

          Not really sure I understand your logic.

          Why force the option to clients that don't request it ?

          Are you sure your clients aren't asking for it in a renew request, what happens with a client that has been off the network for longer than the lease time ?

          What version of pfsense are you using 2.4.3 uses ISC dhcp services.

            That i sure Pfense dont send option 160 when i add them on configuration.
            on dnsmasq we need to add the -force parameters, on dhcpd i dont know.

            So it's a bug ?

            Yes im sure pfsense dont send the 160 options (verify with wireshark).
