T81 is called "Client FQDN" in
<http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/bootp-dhcp-parameters>.
Its content here is "\0\0\0I7O7O8\0", which is the same as the hostname
option, plus some extra NULs.

dhcp-classid is option number 60.  It's content here is "MSFT 98".

Try adding this to dhclient.conf:

  send option-60 "MSFT 98"; # Vendor class ID
  send option-61 01:00:01:02:9F:5D:B3; # Client ID
