Is that meant to encode 0.0.0.0/32 via 5.22.23.7 and 12.68.0.0/24 via 
5.22.23.100 ?

If so then you haven't read rfc3442 (properly).

That set of routes would be (as I read it) :

32, 0,0,0,0, 5,22,23,7, 24, 12,68,0, 5,22,223,100

32,0,0,0,0 = 0.0.0.0/32
5,22,23,7 =  via 5.22.23.7
24,12,68,0 = 12.68.0.0/24 (note that the redundant 0 is dropped)
5,22,223,100 = via 5.22.223.100

I'm assuming that the DHCP server automatically calculates and 
inserts the option length byte.


The problem may be as simple as not allowing for dropping 
insignificant octets (ie 12.68.0.0/24 becomes 24,12,68,0) and 
possibly leaving off the length.


If you actually meant "default via 5.22.23.7 and 12.68.0.0/24 via 
5.22.23.100" then it would be :

0, 5,22,23,7, 24, 12,68,0, 5,22,223,100

where "0, 5,22,23,7" means 0.0.0.0/0 via 5.22.23.7


Does this work ?
