=> it is DNS wire format, the last 00 stands for the trailing dot.
 BTW it can be represented in DHCPv4 by a tuple array (cf Kea 1.2
ticket #4070, I note to add this in unit tests) if it is not
compressed (compression is explicitly allowed in this option
which BTW has for format an array of DNS names).
 The DNS names (aka FQDNs) in wired format are supposed to be supported
by Kea but it seems only DHCPv6 standard options use it. So please
open a ticket.

Thanks
