[Dnsmasq-discuss] Using the PXE GUID/UUID to set a tag.

Hi,
A PXE request contains a GUID/UUID value (option 97) that is usually a
name/serial number byte string of the actual mainboard hardware (not
the nic!).
Example of what I mean: I have an (ancient) dell here and when I PXE
boot this thing I get these values in the PXE request:
Client Identifier (UUID): 4c4c4544-0059-3010-804c-c3c04f4d314a
The first 4 bytes are actually "DELL"
Now the manual of dnsmasq states:
--dhcp-mac=3com,01:34:23:*:*:* will set the tag "3com"
for any host whose MAC address matches the pattern.
How do I do something similar for the value of the GUID/UUID value?

Met vriendelijke groeten,
