default-router (dhcpv4-pool-config)

Configures a default router or gateway IP address for the network pool

After a DHCP client has booted, the client begins sending packets to its default router. Set the IP address of one or a group of routers the controller uses to map host names into IP addresses available to DHCP supported clients. Up to 8 default router IP addresses are supported.

Supported on the following devices:

Access Points: AP5010, AP310i/e, AP410i/e, AP505i, AP510i, AP510e, AP560i, AP6522, AP6562, AP7161, AP7502, AP7522, AP7532, AP7562, AP7602, AP7612, AP7622, AP763, AP7662, AP8163, AP8543, AP8533.

Virtual Platforms: CX9000, VX9000

Syntax

default-router [<IP>|<HOST-ALIAS-NAME>] {<IP1>|<HOST-ALIAS-NAME1>}

Parameters

default-router [<IP>|<HOST-ALIAS-NAME>] {<IP1>|<HOST-ALIAS-NAME1>}


[<IP>\|<HOST-ALIAS- NAME>]	Configures the primary default router, using one of the following options: <IP> – Specifies the primary default router‘s IP address <HOST-ALIAS-NAME> – Specifies a host alias, mapped to the primary default router‘s IP address. The host alias should be existing and configured.
{<IP1>\|<HOST-ALIAS- NAME1>}	Optional. Configures the secondary default router, using one of the following options: <IP1> – Specifies the secondary default router‘s IP address <HOST-ALIAS-NAME1> – Specifies a host alias, mapped to the secondary default router‘s IP address. If the primary default router is unavailable, the secondary router is used. Note: A network host alias maps a name to a single network host. For example, ‘alias host $HOST 1.1.1.100‘. In this example the host alias is ‘$HOST‘ and it maps to a single host ‘1.1.1.100‘. For more information, see alias. Note: A maximum of 8 default routers can be configured..

Usage Guidelines

The IP address of the router should be on the same subnet as the client subnet.
