When I capture DHCPv6 Solicit packet, in "Packet Details" window of wireshark, 
this packet include option "Vendor-specific Information", the enterprise-number
is 4491, and the suboptions are defined in eRouter
Spec(http://cablelabs.net/specifications/CL-SP-CANN-DHCP-Reg-I02-080306.pdf),
wireshark can show suboption 1(Option request), but the following information
is overflow.
In my attachment file, you will see, that the suboption type is 1, length is
10(0x000a), the value are 32(0x0020) 33(0x0021) 34(0x0022) 37(0x0025)
38(0x0026), but it shows "Suboption 1: Option Request =  32 33 34 37 38 14 0 20
0 16", I think, "14 0 20 0 16" should not show at the following.
