You want man dhcp-options, no d:
option domain-search domain-list;
The domain-search option specifies a ’search list’ of Domain Names
to be used
by the client to locate not-fully-qualified domain names. The
difference
between this option and historic use of the domain-name option
for the same
ends is that this option is encoded in RFC1035 compressed labels
on the wire.
For example:
option domain-search "example.com", "sales.example.com",
"eng.example.com";
