In our VCL, our dhcpd.conf contains the following two lines:

                option routers                 10.0.0.1;
                option subnet-mask              255.255.0.0;
                option nis-domain               "NA";
                option domain-name              "vcl.internal";
                option domain-name-servers     10.0.0.1;

These following two lines below were causing trouble for us, so we commented them out. Is there any reason to have the following lines in a VCL configuration?

option routers                 10.0.0.1;
option domain-name-servers     10.0.0.1;

Does anyone know if other parts of VCL rely on DHCP to tell it's DHCP clients that 10.0.0.1 (our VCL management interface) will resolve DNS and act as a router for them? It makes sense to me to comment these out since in reality VCL won't resolve DNS nor forward packets through it's 10.0.0.1 interface.

Best,
