option domain-name "qchipware";
option domain-name-servers 190.160.10.10;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;



subnet 190.160.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
authoritative;
range 190.160.10.11 190.160.10.255;
option routers 190.160.10.1;
allow unknown-clients;
allow booting;
allow bootp;
nex-server 190.160.10.10;
