Description

If a dash is present in the Client ID field for a DHCP Reservation, this will cause Kea to fail with the following error:

unsupported unicode escape in "'[Client ID here]'"

There are no logged events under Status --> System Logs --> DHCP. You must run Kea manually and feed it the config file to get this output.

This only happens with a \u2011 unicode hyphen. Using a \u2013 hyphen has no issue.
