dhcp-option=tag:eth0,option:router,192.168.201.254
- Here is an excerpt from /var/log/messages when client's NIC is started.
Nov 30 12:32:00 rhel-server dnsmasq-dhcp[1957]: 3713354755 sent size: 4 option: 3:router 192.168.201.101
- "192.168.201.101" which is provided as router address is not a correct router address, but dnsmasq server address. "192.168.201.254" should be provided to the client as router address.
