Description

It is impossible to add my own DhcpOption types, due to the fixed and private static encapsulation in DhcpOption. Also, the option set isn't even complete enough for practical use.

This method:
public static int getTagByClass( Class c )

{ return ( ( Integer ) CODE_BY_CLASS.get( c ) ).intValue(); }

will NPE given an option class which isn't privately registered.
