If all requests fail, the RAC returns to the ROM monitor (if in Setup mode)
or continues the autoinitializing procedure indefinitely (if in normal
mode).
BootP
For a successful BootP retrieval, you must be running a bootpd daemon
on a host on the same subnet as the RAC (or have a router on the same
subnet that supports BootP forwarding) and must have the appropriate
information in the bootptab file. The BootP implementation for the RAC
adheres to RFC 951, RFC 1048, and RFC 1084. A sample bootptab file
entry used to initialize the RAC named terminator looks like this:
remoteannexdefault:\
:sm=255.255.255.0:gw=132.245.22.66:\
:hn:vm=auto:to=-18000:
terminator:\
:ht=1:ha=00802d004879:ip=132.245.22.226:\
:tc=remoteannexdefault:
In this example:
sm is the subnet mask.
gw is the load/dump gateway address.
vm is the Vendor Magic Cookie.
ht is the host type (1=Ethernet).
ha is the RAC 's hardware address (Ethernet Address).
ip is the RAC's IP address.
