BootP
For BootP, the BootP server must have the appropriate information configured for
the 8275-416 . A newly installed 8275-416 broadcast a BootP request over IP when
it is powered on or reset. The BootP server, using information from its BOOTPTAB
file, provides the 8275-416 with configuration information. In addition to obtaining
the IP address and the subnet mask, the 8275-416 can attach to a configuration
server to obtain a configuration file. The configuration file is an ASCII file containing
8275-416 commands. The commands are executed as soon as the configuration
file is transferred via TFTP to the 8275-416 . The 8275-416 updates its
configuration file with the information contained in the BootP message. The
following is an example of a BOOTPTAB file entry containing configuration
information for the 8275-416 :
8275_416_Switch_1:ht=ethernet:ha=0004ac6b0980:\
ip=10.1.7.7:gw=10.1.1.1:\
sm=255.255.255.0
8275_416_Switch_2:ht=ethernet:ha=0004ac6b09C0:\
ip=10.1.7.8:gw=10.1.1.1:\
sm=255.255.255.0
Where:
ht hardware type
ha host hardware address
ip host IP address
gw gateway address list
sm subnet mask
Configuration information obtained from the BootP server is not saved unless you
issue the SAVE command. Next, configure the Network Configuration Protocol.
Configuring 8275-416 for DHCP or BootP Server
If you are using DHCP or BootP, the DHCP or BootP server must be configured
with the appropriate information for the 8275-416 .
If you are not using BootP or DHCP, set the Network Configuration Protocol with a
value of
None to reduce network traffic.
When you use DHCP or BootP to get the 8275-416 ’s IP information, you configure
the Network Configuration Protocol by selecting Server Configuration Menu from
the Management Menu. The Server Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 19 on
page 33.
