BOOTP Relay
The BOOTP and
DHCP protocols are used to aid in the dynamic assignment of host IP addresses, configuration parameters, and, sometimes, boot images. These protocols are typically limited in scope to a single LAN broadcast domain. The BOOTP/DHCP relay agent extends these capabilities to access a configuration server on a remote LAN segment.
To
enable BOOTP Relay:
- 1. Click the BOOTP Relay link in the Client Services section of the Config Tool main menu.
The BOOTP Relay View is presented. The following figure shows an example
of this view.
- 2. Type the IP address of the BOOTP/DHCP server in the Forward to field.
This parameter is mandatory whenever the relay agent is enabled.
- 3. Click the on radio button in the Bootp relay enable field.
- 4. Click either the Apply button to use these parameters
or
Click the Top button to disregard these parameters and return to the previous view.
The Apply successful message appears if no errors occur.
