  Yes... this was fixed in 2.1.9.  Don't expect 2.1.8 to parse option 82.

  2.1.9 was tested to work.

  Please supply a packet trace (wireshark / tcpdump) which contains that
packet.  If we had seen this issue in testing 2.1.9, we would have fixed it.

  It was tested to work with a number of different switches.

  Supply a "pcap" file containing the packet, so we can reproduce the
problem, and fix it.
