Refer to isc-dhcp's dhcpd.conf manual for more information:
https://kb.isc.org/docs/isc-dhcp-44-manual-pages-dhcpdconf
+Quotes can be used inside parameter values by replacing all quote characters
+with the string ``"``. They will be replaced with literal quote characters
+when generating dhcpd.conf.
+
Example
^^^^^^^
.. opcmd:: set service dhcp-server shared-network-name dhcpexample subnet 192.0.2.0/24 static-mapping example static-mapping-parameters "option domain-name-servers 192.0.2.11, 192.0.2.12;"
- Override the static-mapping's dns-server with a custom one that will be sent only to this host.

+
+ An option that takes a quoted string is set by replacing all quote characters
+ with the string ``"`` inside the static-mapping-parameters value.
+ The resulting line in dhcpd.conf will be
+ ``option pxelinux.configfile "pxelinux.cfg/01-00-15-17-44-2d-aa";``.
