Hi,
I'm working with a system where several different but related devices may wish to boot by downloading an OS kernel from a central source. I was hoping to achieve this using DHCP, which does everything I want except one thing - I can't find a way to identify to the DHCP server what type of device I am.
For example, I'd like to be able to tell the DHCP server that I am device type A, and it would respond with the correct configuration details appropriate for type A. If a type B device makes a request, the DHCP server would respond with a type B configuration and so on.
Are there any standard ways of achieving this ?
