Table 16-3 BOOTP Policy Summary Window Parameters.
Parameter Description
Index This number determines the sequence in which a BOOTP
request is compared to each BOOTP policy. You assign this
number when defining the policy. The request is applied to
the policy with the lowest index first, then precedes
incrementally. Upon finding a match, the action defined for
the policy is taken, and no further policies are applied.
Action The action that you want the system to take upon finding a
matching BOOTP request. You can configure the interface to
either permit the packet to be forwarded to up to three
DHCP servers or deny (drop) the packet without forwarding.
Mac Address Allows you to match on the source MAC address of the cable
modem. You can also set any or all octets of the MAC
address as a wild card.
Mac Mask Allows you to match on the source MAC mask of the cable
modem. You can also set any or all octets of the MAC mask
as a wild card.
Server List A list of IP addresses to which you want the current cable
interface to forward DHCP packets.
