That command is very useful.  Although for me I had to omit the -q for it to work.

After trial and error I got the config file to pass using this syntax:

class "DialUp" {
    match if (substring(suffix(dhcp-client-identifier,7),0,5)="Async")
     or
     (substring(suffix(dhcp-client-identifier,6),0,5)="Async") ;
       log (info, " Matched Dialup Rule");
}

-SNIP-

subnet 10.116.6.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
     pool {
         allow members of "DialUp";
         range 10.116.6.1 10.116.6.8;
         option routers 10.116.6.1;
         }
}

-SNIP-

#DSS - Cisco VPN
subnet 10.116.6.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
  range 10.116.6.9 10.116.6.179 ;
  option routers 10.116.6.254;
}

-SNIP-

......The next test will be to see if it actually works.
