The dhcp client class-id command is used to set the Option60 field in the DHCP request packet sent by the DHCP client.
The undo dhcp client class-id command is used to restore the default value of the Option60 field.
By default, the default value of the Option60 field depends on the device type, which is "huawei Device Model".

The DHCP server identifies the devices according to the Option60 field in the DHCP request packet. You can run the dhcp client class-id class-id command to customize the Option60 field in the DHCP request packet sent from the DHCP client.
Configuration information of the Option60 field is saved in the storage device:/dhcp-client.options file. By default, the storage device needs to provide more than 80-byte storage space. You can run the more dhcp-client.options command in the user view to check configuration information of the Option60 field.
After you run the dhcp client class-id class-id command in the system view, the device that functions as the DHCP client fills the set Option60 in the DHCP request packet sent from all of the interfaces.
