Description Frank Sweetser 2001-10-29 16:34:34 UTC

If the DHCP response packet doesn't contain a router entry, it appears that
dhcpcd takes it upon itself to declare the DHCP server as the default
gateway.  This would merely be harmless if there were no real gateway, but
when there is another interface with a valid default gateway, if the bogus
one wins, then there is connectivity loss.
