undocumented "option routers false;" usefull - should be documented
- isc-dhcpd-4.3.5
- dhcpd.conf
Dear ISC-Maintainers,
in my network there is one single host named "gw" that itself is a gateway. I could give it a static ip - but i want it to be a normal DHCP-Client. But sending a standard-route to "gw" makes no sense, more than this, it confuses this gateway routing ip-traffic back to the default-router used in the dhcpd-network. So i searched for a possibility to supress isc-dhcpd from sending a router-ip to this special host. This worked:
option routers 192.168.1.1;
[... hundred hosts ...]
host gw {
option host-name "gw";
hardware ethernet b8:27:eb:dd:fa:77;
fixed-address gw;
option routers false;
}
This is very usefull -- but undocumented, please document this in man dhcpd.conf.
