      Hey guys,

      I need hand out a default gateway per subnet, and use a certain address pool per subnet. This is easily identified by the option 82 circuit id. Does pfsense support choosing a pool and what options to send to the client based on option 82 information?

        I don't believe so, one of the limits currently is that pfsense has to have an interface in the segment it will hand out dhcp for.  So using it for a dhcp server with multiple scopes for downstream networks is not really an option as of yet.

        If you need such features you prob better off running dhcp on something else in your network.
