Connecting ASN Routers and BNX Platforms to a Network

2-4

After editing the bootptab ﬁle, be sure to save the changes.

Editing the bootptab File

Enter a

deﬁnition in the bootptab ﬁle for each ASN in your network.

The format of each deﬁnition in the bootptab ﬁle is as follows:

hostname

>:\

:<tg>=<value>:\

:<tg>=<value>:

• <

hostname

> is a name you assign to a BOOTP client (each router is a client).

• <tg> is a BOOTP parameter name (tag).

• Follow each tag with an equal sign (=) and a value.

• A pound sign (#) at the beginning of a line indicates a comment.

• A backslash (\) at the end of a line indicates continuation of the line.

Keep the following in mind when editing bootptab:

• The

deﬁnition can contain a maximum of 79 characters.

• The ﬁrst character must be alphabetic.

• All characters must be alphanumeric.

• You can use a dot (.) to separate characters, but the character immediately

following the dot must be alphabetic.

• The hostname deﬁnition cannot contain an underscore.

Note: Be sure the bootptab ﬁle resides in the /etc directory. BOOTPD fails if it

cannot ﬁnd the bootptab ﬁle in /etc.

Note: Make sure you enter a backslash (\), not a slash (/), at the end of every

line that does not conclude a deﬁnition.
