For DHCP Option 60, I found the ID to use on a pfsense Firewall, I don’t know if that helps:

send dhcp-class-identifier “100008,0001,pfSense dhclient 2.1”;

This hexadecimal value is necessary for the All IP product from Swisscom.

The following line should be fine

send vendor-class-identifier 31:30:30:30:30:38:2C:30:30:30:31:2C:55:54:4D;

Good morning,

I’ve also been sending messages to Swisscom for a while now to add this function to your box routers. Cablcom has this option, and I find it really unfortunate that you’re not doing anything about it.

I have a late Zyxel behind my Box and it’s just crap to do double Nat.

Anyway, I hope this comes to light.

My best regards

PS: This will also be a plus on a commercial level, more customers……….

It’s done!

Same for me, I have an ipfire as a firewall proxy server with a virtual environment behind it containing, among other things, a DNS, a mail server. for my mail server, I do not have any prb to send mail to other domains, however to receive them same observation, reception is impossible. The dmz or port forwarding functions of the internet-box are not advanced enough to implement double nating rules. the passthrou would be a big plus.

In the end, it would be enough to remove the need to make a DHCP request with a specific Vendor ID… presto, VLAN10 and that’s it…

And for Swisscom, if the customer doesn’t use the provided modem, they don’t give support, that’s it.

Hello everyone, I am preparing for the ftth which will arrive at my home in a few months and I see that my concerns are also yours…

For the moment the solution I am aiming for is an SME subscription (are they going to do it to a private one) because the business router supports IP passthrough (with Voip and TV which remains on the router). Exactly what I’m looking for.

If we manage to get our hands on a large business center, could it operate on a line with a private subscription? Or, could Swisscom provide the large business center to private companies in return for something?

Gigius

Good morning,

Thank you for your response.

However, what is the current solution to resolve this problem that many people encounter?

Thank you in advance for your prompt response.

Hello Soldier9945,

I really want to test your system which seems well within my budget! Can you recommend a good media converter to use with the GBIC present with the box?

behind my router is a Netgear WNDR3700 with OpenWRT for now, I hope that will be enough Happy smiley and do you know the IGMP settings to make?

Thank you for your help!

+1 for bridge mode or when they offer complete documentation in English or French which explains the main settings that should be put (specific to Swisscom) in a router like Netgear, Ubiquiti, MikroTik for Swisscom tv2 to work .

The internetbox-plus seems weak (saturated at 500 mbits) when there are a lot of port forwarding rules and there is very heterogeneous traffic. Whereas in the case with 2-3 clients who surf normally there is no problem reaching 1Gbps.
But with the simplified interface you cannot see the router’s load history.

I would also like to change to a more serious router like [a router with sfp+ and sfp](https://www.digitec.ch/fr/s1/product/mikrotik-ccr1009-8g-1s-1s-routeurs-3229876?tagIds =7) but I’m not sure that the tv will work perfectly…

With this ubiquity, I think we can recover the optical socket from the internetbox and put it in the ubiquity in the sfp port after which we will have to configure the router so that it works with swisscom and tv. And since we have 0 information it’s not going to be easy.

Hi,

First of all to clarify, the fiber adapter provided by Swisscom on the Internet Box is an SFP. As a result, it will be compatible with all SFP interfaces.

What is important is that you need to know how to use it with a router behind it.

Our German friends talk about it a lot, especially in the Cisco world:

https://community.swisscom.ch/t5/Archiv-Internet/FTTH-Centro-Grande-Router-mit-Cisco-Router-ersetzen-Just-4-Fun/td-p/1695 32

IP passthrough functionalities will never be highlighted because Swisscom wants to have End-to-End control of the network chain, therefore from the server to the box in order to avoid incompatibility/stability problems.
If you want solidity, you have to be solid in network knowledge. At Cisco everything is possible, but these are professional and expensive products. If I can advise you on anything it is to dig into the swisscom cisco vdsl or swisscom cisco FTTH topics. There is a lot of technical information on the configurations to be made in the Cisco, and therefore to be identified and inserted into your other routers.

Hope this helps.

So, I’ve also been asking for this for a year.

If only to let the Airport terminals work… because they don’t work otherwise.

And unfortunately this is the case even at CityCâble today, due to a lack of IP v4 addresses, because the modem took an IP and then the terminal a second public IP.

But it remains completely scandalous… especially Swisscom’s responses as soon as Apple is mentioned.

Brief.

Passtrough is simple and it works, but in effect prevents control.

That said: since the recent FirmWare which crashed all the boxes for a month, things have gotten worse.
My Swisscom TV no longer works: in fact, I deleted Swisscom’s DHCP so that my terminal does it, and I did port redirection. Quite stupid, the only way for everything to work since the DHCP of the box is more than doubtful and never reliable, and since Swisscom loves to reset the boxes before even having you online…

So if I connect the TV to the internet box: well the TV box doesn’t have an IP so ciao, nothing.

But if you put it on my terminal with an IP, well before it worked, but since then, no, Swisscom doesn’t want the TV box to go anywhere other than THEIR internet box.

So… either they correct their box problems, or they stop blocking everything… because I’m paying during this time…

So I ask again for the 709th time: I demand the passtrough…

THANKS

Hello,

I want to give you my experience. I have an alix box with IPFire on it.

I wanted to have wifi from the internet box, so as not to have 5 firewalls / Access Points and routers.

The DHCP server is configured on my Firewall which has the default-gateway itself. Then I added a static route which points to the Swisscom internet-box (same subnet).

The only fault is that the return of traffic does not pass via the firewall but given that the NAT only allows the return of traffic generated by the LAN and authorized by my Firewall, that is enough for my confidence.

To connect from the outside (internet) to my local network, only VPN (OpenVPN) is possible and termination is done on my IPFire where I manage all the rules.

Ultimately, all my devices (on LAN or Wifi) receive an IP from my IPFire, and send the traffic to the Firewall (in my case the IPFire), then my Firewall inspects the requests and sends all the traffic back to the internet box . Then the return traffic is sent directly to the devices from the internet box.

Good day

I tried with an HES-3106 to convert from fiber to RJ, it works, unfortunately my router (Linksys) does not have the ability to activate DHCP option 60, so I do not receive the correct IP.

Is there no way to retrieve credentials to switch to PPPoE on VLAN 11?

Do you know if it is possible to configure the DHCP 60 option on ASUS routers (with the default firmware) from what I read it does not seem to be the case 😕

@JDA pppoe is not available on All IP. So don’t count too much on that.

To my knowledge, the 60/61 option is available especially on professional routers. Personally except on the Cisco, and otherwise on the Zyxel P870 where I can confirm that it’s ok, the rest I don’t know.
