Title: DNSMasq: Setting tags based on MAC (vendor) like 00:90:E8:*:*:* ??
Post by: pppp12 on March 11, 2026, 05:59:40 PM
Hello,

I'm moving from standalone dnsmasq to opnsense dnsmasq.
In original dnsmasq.conf file I'm setting some tags based on MAC (vendor)
Code Select
dhcp-mac=set:moxa,00:90:E8:*:*:*
dhcp-mac=set:red,64:16:7F:*:*:*    # polycom vvx phones
dhcp-mac=set:esp32,80:f3:da:*:*:*
dhcp-mac=set:esp32,1C:DB:D4:*:*:*

How can I achieve this in opnsense dnsmasq. I can only see option to set tags per individual hosts.

Thanks!

You cannot do this in the GUI but you could in the config import folder.
