Hi,
I am trying to convert my ISC config to kea-equivalent and testing the
changes as part of the testing, I am stuck at testing option 43 ,
Using the keama tool I convert my ISC config to Kea equivalent config and
tested the leases but in the DHCP ACK packet I cannot see option 43 coming
when I operate with Kea

sample code config for option 43 that I used in my testing subnet
           {
                    "data": "74657374",
                    "name": "vendor-encapsulated-options",
                    "csv-format": false
                },

But in log and tcpdump I see the empty value for option 43

Log:
===
2023-06-12 15:10:26.284 DEBUG [kea-dhcp4.packets/30590.140464453838592]

too.

  type=054, len=004: 192.168.0.125
  type=061, len=007: 01:21:21:2f:00:00:01

I have checked the discover packet option 55 just to make sure if my packet
is asking for option 43 or not, and yes I can see option 43 in the option
55 parameter value.

I am not sure what is wrong I am doing, Can someone who has familiar can
guide me

Thanks in Advance
