This disables the possibility to disable the defaultroute on the primary interface in the per inteface config (ifcfg-$interface), that is: dhcp:DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE="yes" ifcfg-eth0:DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE='no' results in DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE="yes". When the use changes the global setting to "no" and enables it for one interface only: dhcp:DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE="no" ifcfg-br1000:DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE='yes' it results in DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE=no.
