hi all,
I´m trying to configure VLAN IPTV in Opnsense, but I need to use Custon KEA DHCP options and I can see where to configure info I have to send to the client (IPTV client server).

Any informatin how to solved it?. Do KEa has this feature?. Any alternatives?

For Kea, there are only the options available in the web UI. You could use "Manual config", but then the whole configuration file must be created manually.

When you look on Github for these issues, you will find that for Kea, there probably will be no generic custom options. The preferred way to handle additional options with Kea is to add them one by one when the need arises, so you can make a feature request.

Other than that, your other option is to use DNSmasq for the DHCP server, where there exists a generic mechanism for options.
