Creating a BootP Relay Agent Forwarding Table
You must create a BootP relay agent forwarding table for every transient router
passing BootP traffic between a router and the BootP server.
The BootP relay agent forwarding table consists of IP interfaces that you
configure to receive the incoming BootP request packets and to forward the
outgoing BootP request packets. The BootP relay agent forwards BootP request
packets based on the IP addresses of the interfaces in this table. You can add
multiple pairs of incoming and outgoing interfaces to support connections to
multiple routers in your network. For more information about configuring a
forwarding table, see Configuring IP Services.
Specifying the IP Interface Input/Output Address Pair
You create the BootP relay agent forwarding table by specifying the IP interface
addresses (input and output) of the pair that you want to receive and forward
BOOTREQUEST packets. If you enter an IP address that you have not configured
on the router, the notation
??? appears before the IP address (example: ???
111.111.111.111). When you configure the IP address on the router, Site
Manager replaces
??? with the appropriate address.
Do not specify an unnumbered interface for the input or output IP interface
address parameters. If you want to use an unnumbered interface to transmit
BOOTREQUEST or DHCP packets to the servers, you must set up a preferred
server in the BootP Relay Agent Interface Table window (see “Configuring BootP
Preferred Servers,” on page 4-13).
To specify the IP interface input/output address pair, complete the tasks in the
following table.
