Routers
Specifies the list of IP addresses for routers (gateways) on the client’s subnet. If

the default gateway address.

Specifies the client’s subnet mask as described in RFC 950.
A subnet mask allows the addition of subnetwork numbers to an address, and
provides for more complex address assignments.
If you specify both the subnet mask and the router option in a DHCP reply, the
subnet mask option must be first.
Use this format: ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd.
