I'm afraid I didn't look at the patch, but how does a static route
have anything to do with DHCP? (Maybe I'd understand if I looked
at the patch).. Generally when I think of static routes I think
"I know how to get to host X or net Y/Z" -- so if it's a static
host route I only need to know the host address, and if it's a static
network route I need the network and netmask. These numbers would
need to be part of the static route configuration.
