Alteon OS Application Guide
In GbESM implementation, there is no need for primary or secondary servers. The client
request is forwarded to the BOOTP servers configured on the switch. The use of two servers
provide failover redundancy. However, no health checking is supported.
Use the following commands to configure the switch as a DHCP relay agent:
>> # /cfg/l3/bootp
>> Bootstrap Protocol Relay# addr
>> Bootstrap Protocol Relay# addr2
>> Bootstrap Protocol Relay# on
>> Bootstrap Protocol Relay# off
>> Bootstrap Protocol Relay# cur
Additionally, DHCP Relay functionality can be assigned on a per interface basis. Use the fol-
lowing command to enable the Relay functionality:
>> # /cfg/l3/if <interface number>/relay ena
