I think, it is something like this way.

"Finally, dhcp-option sets the third (3) DHCP option, which sets the
default route, pointing to 192.168.0.1 as the router."

"By default dnsmasq assumes that host running dnsmasq is your
gateway/router. That wasn’t the case in my network so I needed to specify
the IP address of my Cisco gateway/router in the following line:

dhcp-option=3,192.168.10.1"

Here is something.
