Setting the information using a bootstrap protocol
You may set the IP address, netmask, and gateway using a TCP/IP bootstrap
protocol (BOOTP), if you have a BOOTP server running on your network.
Make sure the BOOTP server is running on the same LAN segment as the
adapter. (Some routers will pass the packets, but many will not. If the BOOTP
server is on a different LAN segment, check your router’s documentation to be
sure packets will cross.)
To set the IP address, netmask, and gateway using a TCP/IP bootstrap protocol:
1
Find the hardware address for the adapter.
To find the hardware
address, look at the setup page for the adapter. The address is labelled
UAA an LAA on the setup page.
•
If you are using an Ethernet adapter, be sure to use the address in the right
column. This is the canonical form of the address, circled on the sample
setup page on
Choose the Locally Administered Address (LAA), unless it is
000000000000. If the LAA is 000000000000, choose the Universally
Administered Address (UAA).

Set up the BOOTP server.
To do so, edit the BOOTP file on the host
computer that is running the BOOTP server. The file is usually located
in /etc/bootptab.
The file contains information such as the hostname and the IP address.
For example, a bootptab record might look similar to this:
jdlprt:\
ht=ether:\
ha=08005A09E610:\
ip=9.51.8.212:\
sm=255.255.255.128:\
gw=9.51.8.132
where the following means:
jdlprt
hostname.
ht=ether
hardware type.
ha=08005A09E610
hardware address.
ip=9.51.8.212
IP address.
sm=255.255.255.128
netmask.
gw=9.51.8.132
gateway.
If you need help editing the BOOTP file, try the man page that came with
your UNIX software. Most popular UNIX workstations contain man
pages that help you with tasks like this. You might try man bootp or man
bootptab. If that doesn’t work, consult your system’s documentation.
