eval / logging question

[Duane Cox]

If I wanted to construct an if statement that would evaluate the dhcp packet message-type, what would be the way to do this?

I don't think I could use the if (packet (xx, 1) because the message type is stored in the options area after the OREO and not a
predefinded length down the packet.

I tried this...

if option message-type = 8 {log (info, "DHCPINFORM etc etc etc");}

But I get this:
