option vs send ? netmask inheritance?

Hi all,

	Can someone either point me to documentation or explain the difference
between the following :

option host-name "myhost";

and

send host-name "myhost";

I'm looking at a config from another system that has both of these
defined for host entries and I'm wondering if it's redundant or if
there's some reason to have both in there.

Also, do host entries inherit the netmask of the encompassing scope, or
should the netmask be explicitly defined?

Thanks!
