Option 82 Logging

I have been trying to get option 82 logging to work for the last while off a
test dslam
I have in the lab.

Here is a tcpdump capture:

11:44:14.087093 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 128, id 1723, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP
(17), length 399)
    0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: [udp sum ok] BOOTP/DHCP, Request

            NOAUTO Option 116, length 1: Y
            Client-ID Option 61, length 7: ether 00:d0:59:3d:e7:e5
            Requested-IP Option 50, length 4: 192.168.1.16
            Hostname Option 12, length 8: "CWPORT45"
            Vendor-Class Option 60, length 8: "MSFT 5.0"
            Parameter-Request Option 55, length 11:

              Netbios-Name-Server, Netbios-Node, Netbios-Scope, Router-Discovery
              Static-Route, Classless-Static-Route-Microsoft, Vendor-Option
            Vendor-Option Option 43, length 2: 220.0
            Agent-Information Option 82, length 69: 
              Circuit-ID SubOption 1, length 42:
Test-Dslam:1/2:0.35:VLAN=1:ifIndex=1003002
              Remote-ID SubOption 2, length 23: epserial=:epvendor=TCTN
            END Option 255, length 0
            PAD Option 0, length 0

My DHCP config:

default-lease-time 300;
max-lease-time 300;
allow bootp;
ddns-updates off;
ddns-update-style interim;

log-facility local7;

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.248 {
}

subnet 192.168.1.192 netmask 255.255.255.240 {

if exists agent.circuit-id {
  log (debug, concat("debug",option agent.circuit-id)); }

if exists agent.remote-id {
  log (info, concat("option-82 info is RID: ", option agent.remote-id)); }

        authoritative;
        option routers 192.168.1.1;
        range 192.168.1.193 192.168.1.206;
}
======

I see examples with concat, and taking just parts of the strings, but I just
can't figure out
the correct way to do this.

A discover comes in:

Dec 24 11:49:59 play dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:d0:59:3d:e7:e5 via bge0:
network 192.168.1.0/29: no free leases

As soon as I remove the if statements the client gets a lease.

Have I got this ordered wrong? I have tried about a dozen different examples and
other variations. I just want it to log
this line: 

Circuit-ID SubOption 1, length 42: Test-Dslam:1/2:0.35:VLAN=1:ifIndex=1003002

I have used DHCP for quite a number of years, but never used option 82 features
before, just a basic straight forward
config that has always worked.

Thanks,
Keith
