If all requests fail, the Remote Access Concentrator will return to the
ROM monitor (if in Test mode) or continue the auto-initializing procedure
indefinitely (if in normal mode).
BOOTP
For a successful BOOTP retrieval, a bootpd must be running on a host
on the same subnet as the Remote Access Concentrator (or have a
correctly-configured router on the same subnet that supports BOOTP
forwarding) and must have the appropriate information in the bootptab
file. The Remote Access Concentrator's BOOTP implementation adheres
to rfc951, rfc1048, and rfc1084. A sample bootptab file entry used to
initialize the Remote Access Concentrator 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 the previous example:
• sm is the subnet mask.
• gw is the load/dump gateway address.
• vm is the Vendor Magic Cookie.
• ht is host type (1=Ethernet).
• ha is the Remote Access Concentrator 's hardware address
(Ethernet Address).
• ip is the Remote Access Concentrator's Internet Address.
