Chapter 5: Setting Up SafeGuard Switches
The following example, extends the BOOTP or DHCP relay hop count to 8:
(SafeGuardOS) #configure terminal
(SafeGuardOS) (config) #bootpdhcprelay maxhopcount 8
(SafeGuardOS) (config) #exit
(SafeGuardOS) #
Establishing a BOOTP or DHCP Relay Minimum Wait Time
When the BOOTP or DHCP relay agent receives a BOOTREQUEST message the request
is immediately relayed. To configure a minimum delay or wait time of up to 100 seconds
using the seconds-since-client-began-booting field for BOOTP or DHCP relay requests,
use the bootphcprelay minwaittime command in Global Configuration mode.
bootpdhcprelay minwaittime seconds
The following example sets the relay minimum wait time to 4 seconds:
(SafeGuardOS) #configure terminal
(SafeGuardOS) (config) #bootpdhcprelay minwaittime 4
(SafeGuardOS) (config) #exit
(SafeGuardOS) #
Displaying BOOTP or DHCP Relay Information
To display BOOTP or DHCP relay information, use the show bootpdhcprelay command
in Privileged Exec mode.
show bootpdhcprelay
The command has no parameters or variables.
The following example is representative of the command output:
(SafeGuardOS) #show bootpdhcprelay
