DHCP Server Options - Problems adding server options

[#1]

FG60 Firmware 3.0MR3 Patch12 build0416. Im trying to add options 66 and 67 to the DHCP server config to do some autoconfigs on a couple of VOIP handsets. We do the same thing on another linux based DHCP server and it works a treat. Settings we' re trying to add: Option 1: Code: 66 Option: <INSERT URL HERE> Option 2: Code: 67 Option: <INSERT FILENAME HERE> Yes im putting in real URLs and filenames above. Ive just obsficated it for here. When I try and add the config via GUI or CLI it errors out with: GUI: Input value is invalid. CLI: (internal_dhcp_ser.)# set option1 66 <INSERT URL HERE> Found invalid hexdecimal character node_check_object fail! for option1 <INSERT URL HERE> value parse error before ' <INSERT URL HERE>' Command fail. Return code -651 Now referring to the CLI reference it says that the value needs to be a hex number! Does that mean I need to convert my strings to hexadecimal? Any got something like this to work and can provide some insight?

Yes you have to use hexdec for this to work. ASCII to HEX Program for FortiGate DHCP options - by Martin Hoz (c) 2007 by Fortinet, Inc. WARNING: This is a NOT officially supported tool.

Thank you. You wouldnt believe the amount if time ive spent pouring over the docs and KBs and PDFs trying to find the solution. Where does one actually get this ' hexdec' tool from though? Ive done some quick searchs on docs and support and got no hits.

Tried to. Forums said I wasnt allowed to. Can you mail it through to support@faredge.com.au?

I can' t seem to upload files via the forum. Looks like that functionality is disabled. Send me an PM with your email address.

Dont bother posting the app. You can use the converter at http://www.mikezilla.com/exp0012.html Then just remove the % it inserts. Just tested this and it works a treat. Thanks for you assistance Jason.
