Hi,

is it a big thing to get the architecture-type (i.e. 32 or 64 bit) in a
settings-variable? In dchp option 93 (rfc 4578) is written, that any
pxe-client has to build in sending the arch-type like

#dhcp-match=peecees, option:client-arch, 0
#x86-32 #dhcp-match=itanics, option:client-arch, 2
#IA64 #dhcp-match=hammers, option:client-arch, 6
#x86-64 #dhcp-match=mactels, option:client-arch, 7
#EFI x86-64

(dnsmasq-syntax)

Any hints?

Tfh!

Oliver
