=> the filename is a BOOTP (vs DHCP) feature and is considered by
default to be deprecated/obsolete. IMHO it is a good topic for
a hook, BTW Dhcpv4Srv::vendorClassSpecificProcessing does exactly
what you want for Docsis modem clients:
// Now try to set up file field in DHCPv4 packet. We will just copy
// content of the boot-file option, which contains the same information.
so you have just to cut & paste the code after this comment... Or if
the other specific processing is useful too puts all clients in the
right class.
