Configuring BayStack Remote Access
B-4 117341-A Rev. A
Router Not Sending BootP Responses
If a router between the BayStack router and the BootP server is receiving BootP
requests but is failing to send BootP responses, do the following:
1. Use Site Manager to ensure that the BootP relay agent forwarding table
associated with the router shows an IP address that is configured on the
IP router.
2. Ensure that the input IP address is correct. If the Hops count is lower
than the router’s position in the path, increase the Hops count.
See “Creating the BootP Client Interface Table” in Chapter 3 for instructions.
3. Use the Configuration Manager to ensure that BootP and IP are enabled
on the incoming and outgoing interfaces.
4. Ensure that the link modules and drivers are enabled. See Configuring
and Managing Routers with Site Manager for instructions.
BootP Server Not Sending BootP Responses
If the BootP server is receiving BootP requests but is failing to respond to them,
do the following:
1. Follow the instructions in “Displaying the BootP Server IP Routes” on
pa
ge B-15.
2. Follow the instructions in “Debugging the BootP Server” on page B-12.
3. Ensure that the /etc/inetd.conf file contains no more than one bootps
entry.
If there is more than one entry, comment out the invalid entry. The valid entry
is as follows:
bootps dgram udp wait root /etc/bootpd bootpd
4. Ensure that the tftp dgram entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file is correct for
your system.
See “Setting Up a TFTP Server” in Chapter 2 for instructions.
5. See “Verifying the BootP Server Setup” on page B-14.
