Table 2-1. BootPD Tags for a Router Host Name
Tag
Required or
Optional Value Example
ip Required IP address -- the host IP address
of the router
ip=192.32.5.2
sm Optional Subnet mask -- the host subnet
mask of the router
sm=255.255.255.0
T129 Required Path name of the router
configuration file. The maximum
length is 49 characters.
T129="/usr/cfg/an_Bost.cfg
"
T130 Required Size of the router configuration file
in 512-byte blocks. This tag
determines how much memory the
router allocates for the file. Set this
tag to 0x0004.
T130=0x0004
tc Optional Table continuation -- a pointer to
another location in the same file
for additional information. This tag
points to information that is
common to all routers that use
BootPD. If the information
contradicts information in a
specific host-name definition,
BootPD uses the information in
that definition.
