hello

I want to configure the DHCP server of my 80F firewall, for this purpose I need to set options 60, 66 and 67,especially for options 67 I can't set it via the web interface, it recamnds me to use the CLI console.

i followed this technical tips

So I guess you should edit the 3rd, like this:

config system dhcp server

Hello

It is the interface on which this DHCP server config will run.

The easiest is to configure it via GUI then go to CLI, there you will find the configuration ready, then just add what you need to add via CLI.

yes the interface is UP and running, with GUI, and th DHCP is ready, when I try to set option 67, i have a warning, with CLI it tell me to set interface attribute

This option may not function correctly. It should be set using the CLI attribute: filename.

Bellow my console commande suit

Fortigate # config system dhcp server  Fortigate (server) # Fortigate (server) # edit 1 new entry '1' added  Fortigate (1) # Fortigate (1) # set filename "E:\\RemoteInstall\\Boot\\x64\\wdsnbp.com"  Fortigate (1) # Fortigate (1) # next Attribute 'interface' MUST be set. Command fail. Return code 1  Fortigate (server) # Fortigate (server) # end
