Hi all
The posts on this forum have helped me take the steps to ditch the supplied router and incorporate my new broadband supplier into my existing opnsense setup, so thanks for that
I have factory reset and updated the VMG3925-B10B to /trejan/VMG3925-B10B/tree/V5.13(AAVF.12)C0-Jumbo and believe I have the router in modem only mode.
I have followed the modem only mode with stats separated howto post (thx) and can monitor the stats and modem sides with wireshark, so they seem to be correctly segregated.
I have gotten the correct dhcp details from the original modem for dhcp-client-identifier and dhcp-class-identifier and entered those into the opnsense lease requirements field.
I am also spoofing the original sky801 modem wan mac address in the wan interface on opnsense.
Sadly when I use wireshark on the modem those dhcp settings are not getting translated into the correct dhcp settings?
I wondered if anyone can help me with the format they used in the opnsense lease requirements field to get it to work please?
Looking at the dhcp manpage it should be 'option dhcp-client-identifier "....|"' but the examples on the opnsense manual don't include 'option'.
Not sure if this is an opnsense config issue or perhaps I have not configured the modem mode correctly.
Thanks in advance for any help
