Technical data

SET BOOTP
/NETWORK_MASK=IP_address
Required if you use subnets; otherwise optional.
Specifies the part of the host field of an IP address identified as the subnet.
The software calculates the default by setting the following:
The bits representing the network field to 1
The bits representing the host field to 0
You can divide the host field into a site-specific subnetwork and a host field. If
you use subnets, you must specify a subnet field.
/SERVERS=type=host
Optional.
Specifies other servers whose names BOOTP can supply to clients. Here, host
specifies a host name or IP address and type can be one or more of the following:
[NO]COOKIE Cookie server
[NO]IEN_NAME IEN-116 name server
[NO]IMPRESS Impress network image server (IMAGEN)
[NO]LPR Berkeley 4BSD print server
[NO]LOG MIT-LCS UDP logging server
[NO]NAME BIND name server
[NO]RESOURCE Resource Location Protocol
(RLP) server (RFC-887)
[NO]TIME Internet time server (RFC-868)
/TIME_OFFSET=seconds
Optional. Default: 0 seconds.
Specifies the time difference, in seconds, between the client’s time zone and
Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) expressed in seconds. This value is zero (0) in
the British Isles and parts of Europe, a positive number for locations east of the
zero meridian, and a negative number for locations west of the zero meridian.
Examples
1.
TCPIP> SET BOOTP PLOVER /HARDWARE=ADDRESS=08-00-2D-20-23-21 -
_TCPIP> /FILE=PLOVER.SYS
Adds client host PLOVER, with hardware address 08-00-2D-20-23-21 to the
BOOTP database. BOOTP can respond to a remote boot request from client
PLOVER with a reply packet containing the name of the file to down load and
its IP address.
2.
TCPIP> SET BOOTP ERN /HARDWARE=ADDRESS=98-00-2D-20-23-21 -
_TCPIP> /SERVERS=COOKIE=(PLOVER,GULL)
Adds client host ERN to the BOOTP database and specifies that ERN will use
PLOVER AND GULL as cookie servers.
3.
TCPIP> SET BOOTP PLOVER /HARDWARE=ADDRESS=08-00-2D-20-23-21 -
_TCPIP> /SERVERS=(COOKIE=GULL,NAME=BIRDS)
Adds client host PLOVER to the BOOTP database and specifies that PLOVER
will use GULL as a COOKIE server and BIRDS as its name server.
