Issues in using User Class Option

Hi,

Sumant is my colleague and I have the mentioned patch applied in DHCP 4.3.5.  But when I am using the concept of class and subclass I am facing issues. Server is not responding back with the class data. Please see mails below.

Also when I configured dhcp6.vendor-opts without defining classes and subclasses, than even with the mismatch in enterprise Id I configured and the requested enterprise Id in solicit packet, server is sending back with the configured enterprise Id.


Regards,
Saurabh Jain

Hello:

There was an issue introduced in ISC DHCP 4.3.5 which broke the server's ability to send dhcp6.vendor-opts.  This
has been corrected in our upcoming feature release, 4.4.0, due out Q1/2018:

- The ability of the server to send back dhcp6.vendor-opts values has been
  restored. A change in 4.3.5 (see #29246) which enabled it to send back the
  FQDN option unfortunately broke its ability to send back dhcp6.vendor-opts.
  Thanks to Sumant Gupta (sumantgupta at gmail dot com) of Landis+Gry for
  bringing this issue to our attention.
  [ISC-Bugs #46427]

It will be included in our next maintenance release, 4.3.7, but it's date is TBD>

I have attached a patch which corrects the issue for 4.3.6.
