      Hi

      I have run in to a little issue I hope you guys can help me with. IPTV-Device sends a specific DHCP request and I want to mimic this to get an ip from my provider. So far I have managed to create most of the request but I cant figure out how to set the Broadcast flag?!

      Regards Christian

      My attempt but it don't like the line "always-broadcast yes"

      interface "igb0.269" {
      
              supersede interface-mtu 0;
      # DHCP Protocol Timing Values
      
      # DHCP Protocol Options
              send dhcp-class-identifier "VIASAT:IPTV:STB";;
              request Domain-Name-Server, Default-Gateway, Subnet-Mask, Domain-Name TFTP, BF, BS, Vendor-Option;;
              always-broadcast yes;;
      
              script "/usr/local/sbin/pfSense-dhclient-script";
      }
      

      Original traffic from IPTV-device (yea im still missing the Option 43)
