Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) client. Use the no form of this command to remove the
configured router.
Syntax Description
<address> Specifies the address (in dotted decimal notation) of the preferred router on the
client’s subnet (example: 192.22.4.254).
<secondary> Optional. Specifies the address (in dotted decimal notation) of the second
preferred router on the client’s subnet (example: 192.22.4.253).

Command Modes
(config-dhcp)# DHCP Pool
Functional Notes
When specifying a router to use as the primary/secondary preferred router, verify that the listed router is on
the same subnet as the DHCP client. The Secure Router OS allows a designation for two routers, listed in
order of precedence.
Usage Examples
The following example configures a default router with address 192.22.4.253 and a secondary router with
address 192.22.4.254:
(config)#ip dhcp-server pool MyPool
(config-dhcp)#default-router 192.22.4.253 192.22.4.254
