Search and replace in a logging field?

[Scott Baker]

Here is a snippet of my config:

if(substring(option agent.remote-id, 0, 1) = "N") {
        log(info, concat("DHCPOCCAM ", binary-to-ascii (10, 8, ".",
leased-address), " ", option agent.remote-id));
}

Basically if the remote_id starts with "N", log the leased address, and
the remote-id. The problem is, that the access platform sends a bunch of
extra text in the remote-id I do NOT want to log.

Is there a way I can search and replace (remove) some text in the
remote-id before I log it? Specifically I just want to remove the word
"DSL" that's present in all the remote-ids to be consistent with the
rest of my network.

I've opened a bug with the equipment vendor to remove it before it sends
it to the DHCP server, but I'm not sure how much traction I'll get.

Thanks
