Hi Laurent,

I missed one important thing in my previous email. In order to have
option FDN included in the response you need to also add the following
parameter:

"always-send": true

to the option data for this option. So something like this:

{
    "name": "FND",
    "code": 1,
    "space": "vendor-26484",
    "data": "fd05::4:d",
    "always-send": true
}

Please let me know how it went.

Marcin
