Hello,

We are running Kea 1.4.0 and are having trouble getting the server to hand
out option 125 to a Mitel phone. The Kea server is replying to the client
with this data in the DHCP offer with an empty option 125 containing only
the Mitel enterprise option but no data.

We have this option definition specified in the Dhcp4 config:
        "option-def": [
        {
                "array": false,
                "code": 130,
                "encapsulate": "",
                "name": "mitel-option",
                "record-types": "",
                "space": "vendor-1027",
                "type": "string"
            }
      ],

We then placed this option in the subnet["pools"]["option-data"] for our
phone subnet
                            {
                                "name": "vivso-suboptions",
                                "data": "1027"
                            },
                            {
                                "name": "mitel-option",
                                "space": "vendor-1027",
                                "data": "id:ipphone.mitel.com
;sw_tftp=10.78.182.2;call_srv=10.78.182.2;vlan=71;l2p=6;dscp=46;"
                            }

Here is the DHCP Offer pcap coming back from server:

Frame 15952: 332 bytes on wire (2656 bits), 332 bytes captured (2656 bits)

        Length: 5
        Enterprise: Mitel, Corp. (1027)
            Length: 0
    Option: (255) End

It looks like the configuration for the enterprise ID is working correctly
however the custom "mitel-option" string doesn't seem to be contributing.
Is there anything wrong with the way we have this configured?

We aren't using any client-class configuration to restrict this option to
only the clients requesting a given Vendor-Identifying Vendor Class option.
Is it a requirement that the client-classification be used to specify the
vendor class option?

Thank you for your help,

Evan Carson
