Let me try to clarify:
Currently, DHCP-Boot-Filename value is not being sent and
DHCP-Boot-File-Name is being sent. The problem is only with
DHCP-Boot-Filename.
Note that DHCP-Boot-Filename is part of the dhcp header (as seen in
src/lib/dhcp.c). When freeradius writes the response packet, the
DHCP-Boot-Filename field is blank, when it should be pulling in a
string if I configure DHCP-Boot-Filename.
See screenshot of DHCP ACK packet in wireshark:
http://i.imgur.com/wSdgp.png . To get that specific example, I have
specified BOTH of these in config:
DHCP-Boot-Filename = pxeboot
DHCP-Boot-File-Name = pxeboot
In highlighted blue is the section of the packet where
DHCP-Boot-Filename should be populated.
Circled in pink is the section of the packet where DHCP-Boot-File-Name
is being sent.
Hope that helps.
Thank you,
Mark
