[Kea-users] Configured but gateway is not being delivered by dhcp

Hi all,

After a few days (and a rogue missing comma) I got the kea service to start.

Something weird though my phone got a new DHCP lease from kea and browsing
seemed really flaky, turns out even thought I had an IP and DNS I didn't
get the gateway IP. I thinks it's set correctly my conf file is:

GNU nano 3.2                     kea-dhcp4.conf

{
# DHCPv4 configuration starts on the next line
"Dhcp4": {

# First we set up global values
    "valid-lifetime": 4000,
    "renew-timer": 1000,
    "rebind-timer": 2000,

# Next we set up the interfaces to be used by the server.
         "interfaces-config": {
        "interfaces": [ "eth0" ]
    },

# And we specify the type of lease database
    "lease-database": {
        "type": "memfile",
        "persist": true,
        "name": "/var/lib/kea/dhcp4.leases"
    },

# Finally, we list the subnets from which we will be leasing addresses.
    "subnet4": [
        {
            "subnet": "192.168.0.0/24",
            "pools": [
                {
                     "pool": "192.168.0.50 - 192.168.0.149"
                }],

            "option-data":[
                {


pi at DHCP1:/etc/kea $ cat kea-dhcp4.conf
{
# DHCPv4 configuration starts on the next line
"Dhcp4": {

# First we set up global values
    "valid-lifetime": 4000,
    "renew-timer": 1000,
    "rebind-timer": 2000,

# Next we set up the interfaces to be used by the server.
    "interfaces-config": {
        "interfaces": [ "eth0" ]
    },

# And we specify the type of lease database
    "lease-database": {
        "type": "memfile",
        "persist": true,
        "name": "/var/lib/kea/dhcp4.leases"
    },

# Finally, we list the subnets from which we will be leasing addresses.
    "subnet4": [
        {
            "subnet": "192.168.0.0/24",
            "pools": [
                {
                     "pool": "192.168.0.50 - 192.168.0.149"
                }],

            "option-data":[
                {
                     "name": "routers",
                     "data": "192.168.0.1",

                     "name": "domain-name-servers",
                     "data": "208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220"
                }]

            }
        ]
    }
}
# DHCPv4 configuration ends with the next line

Is there anything I'm missing? I have checked multiple conf files online
and it seems fine.
