--- Comment #11 from Jérôme LAFORGE <jerome.laforge@xxxxxxxxx> 2012-11-13 01:12:07 PST ---
Excerpt RFC 3361 :
<...>
Clients MUST support compression according to the encoding in Section
   4.1.4 of "Domain Names - Implementation And Specification" [6].

         Since the domain names are supposed to be different domains,
         compression will likely have little effect, however.

   If the length of the domain list exceeds the maximum permissible
   within a single option (254 octets), then the domain list MUST be
   represented in the DHCP message as specified in [7].

<...>
[6] Mockapetris, P., "Domain names - implementation and
       specification", STD 13, RFC 1035, November 1987.

[7] Lemon, T. and S. Cheshire, "Encoding Long DHCP Options", Work in
       Progress.
