Use this command to specify the address for the DHCP server identifier.

The server identifier is a field in a DHCP message that identifies the DHCP server as the destination address from clients to servers. When the DHCP server includes this field in a DHCPOffer, a client uses it to distinguish between multiple lease offers. The server identifier must be an address that can be reached from the client.
