[Kea-users] Kea is tacking on an extra option 12 in DHCP offer message

[Erik Edwards]

It may well be compliant, but that doesn't change the reality that I 
have devices, which cannot be updated, that are unable to accept the 
"compliant" response. This requires that some other DHCP server be on 
the net at the same time (see: dnsmasq) or that all non-"compliant" 
legacy and new hardware be statically assigned. Please, allow the 
administrator to override or suppress that "compliant" or unwanted 
response(s).
