Accepted [ER-7206] Is it possible to add an option 60 parameter to DHCP requests on WAN interfaces?
Dear all,
I am considering replacing my current FTTH router by a TP-Link ER7206. However my ISP requires the device to populate the Option 60 parameter of DHCP requests made by the router to get an Internet (WAN) IP address assigned.
I did not see a way to populate that Option 60 through the web configuration interface. Is there a way to do it via CLI ?
Thank you so much for your help.

Hopefully this is getting there. Also in the Netherlands we have the need for DHCP option 60 on WAN side. This is for KPN, the biggest provider on fiber and is also a wholesale party for multiple other providers. So if this is getting a possibility, i think many people are happy with it.

Did some extra digging, for KPN the following settings must be made to ensure that you get the right info from the provider DHCP:
interface "eth0.4" {
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, routers, rfc3442-classless-static-routes;
send vendor-class-identifier "IPTV_RG";
request is done by option 55 (option 55 has 1, 3, 28 en 121 as parameters)
Where VLan 4 is the Vlan that KPN uses for IPTV traffic.
And for the igmpproxy:
quickleave
phyint eth0.4 upstream ratelimit 0 threshold 1
altnet 213.75.0.0/16
altnet 217.166.0.0/16
phyint eth0.44 downstream ratelimit 0 threshold 1
altnet 192.168.2.0/24 #internal subnet
Hope you can use this info.
