Configuring Routers Available to the DHCP Client

After a DHCP client loads the boot image and has booted, the client sends packets to a router.

To configure routers available to the DHCP client, include the router statement:

router {address;}

You can include this statement at the following hierarchy levels:

[edit system services dhcp][edit system services dhcp pool][edit system services dhcp static-binding]

The router statement specifies a list of IP addresses for routers on the client’s subnet. List routers in order of preference. You must configure at least one router for each client subnet.

The following example shows routers configured at the [edit system services dhcp] hierarchy level:

[edit system services dhcp]
router {10.6.6.1;10.7.7.1;}
