Setting Up the Routing Path Between the DHCP Server and a
BootP Relay Agent
You must define a routing path between the DHCP server and the router
(configured as a BootP relay agent) to ensure the successful transmission of
packets from one end of the network to the other. You define this routing path by:
• Specifying interfaces to receive and forward DHCP packets
• Defining a DHCP server
Specifying Interfaces to Receive and Forward DHCP Packets
BootP/DHCP relay uses the BootP relay agent to forward packets to and receive
packets from DHCP servers. You must define a forwarding route for DHCP
packets by defining a relationship between an interface you configure to receive
DHCP packets from servers and an interface you want to send DHCP packets to
servers. When you define this type of relationship, the interface pair appears in the
BootP relay agent forwarding table. For instructions, see “Specifying Interfaces to
Receive and Relay BOOTREQUEST Packets” on page 4-7.
To allow the BootP relay agent to forward DHCP packets, set the Pass Through
Mode parameter in the BOOTP Relay Agent Forwarding Table window to DHCP.
To specify interfaces to receive and relay DHCP packets and set DHCP as the
mode for packet forwarding, complete the tasks in the following table.
