Description

@simar7

While testing DHCP boot replies with ServeDHCP(), the responses received contain an unknown byte in the header. See below:

Relevant Test:


func TestServeDHCP(t *testing.T) {
	dhcpServer := newDHCPServer()
	p := dhcp.NewPacket(dhcp.BootReply)

	expected := dhcp.ReplyPacket(p, dhcp.Offer, dhcpServer.ip,
		dhcp.IPAdd(dhcpServer.start, dhcpServer.freeLease()),
		dhcpServer.leaseDuration, dhcpServer.options.SelectOrderOrAll(nil))
	actual := dhcpServer.ServeDHCP(p, dhcp.Discover, nil)

	//TODO: Need a strong assertion
	assert.ObjectsAreEqual(actual, expected)
}

Output:
