later bootpd. The -l option may be used to specify debug output from the dhcpclient

command. Other options are documented in the dhcpclient(1M) man page on HP-UX releases

B.11.23 and later. For example, to set the debug output level:

dhcp_misc_opts = "-l 6"

[final] route_gateway [index] = cplx_string

[final] route_destination [index] = cplx_string

[final] route_count [index] = number

These keywords are use to conﬁgure the client’s network routing information. If no routing infor-

mation is given, the default is to set up a "default" route though the local host. If one or more

static routes are to be conﬁgured, the route_gateway must be set. If route_destination

is not set, it defaults to the string "default". If route_count is not set, it defaults to 1 if the

route_gateway is not the same as the client’s IP address. It defaults to 0 if it is the same as

the client’s IP address.

index number should be different for each set of route parameters to be conﬁgured; it may be

thought of as an array index. The ﬁrst route speciﬁed should have an index of 0.

[final] dns_domain = cplx_string

[final] dns_nameserver [index] = cplx_string

[final] dns_search [index] = cplx_string

Sets the domain name services (DNS) domain, one or more name servers, and optionally, one or

more search domains. The index parameter to the dns_nameserver and to the dns_search

keywords allows more than one name server and search domain to be conﬁgured. The ﬁrst server

and search domain should be assigned using an index of 0, and the second 1, etc. See resolver(4)

for details.

[final] nis_domain = cplx_string

[final] nis_server = cplx_string

[final] wait_for_nis_server = boolean

Sets NIS domain and NIS server information. The nis_server keyword is optional when con-

ﬁguring NIS. The default for wait_for_nis_server is TRUE, meaning that the client waits

at boot time until the server can be contacted.

[final] ntpdate_server = cplx_string

Sets the network time protocol server that the client uses to keep the clock synchronized. See ntp-

date(1M) for details. This is currently not used during the installation, rather after the client is ﬁn-

ished installing.

is_net_info_temporary = boolean

Set to true indicating the network information supplied during the install is not assumed to be

correct for the system after it is installed. When set to true and no final parameters have

been set, the set_parms and auto_parms utilities try to obtain the ﬁnal information using the

dhcpclient command using the dynamic host conﬁguration protocol (DHCP), or from you if

DHCP is not available. In addition, if the information used during the installation was originally

obtained from a DHCP server, the IP address lease is returned at the end of the installation.

If set to false, which is the default, the network information used during the install process is

assumed to be default after the installation is complete. This means that if the information was

obtained from a DHCP server, the lease information obtained is kept and used when the client

boots. If it was not obtained via DHCP, the ENABLE_DHCP variable in

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf is set to ’0’ for the speciﬁc LAN interface. This prevents

auto_parms from overriding the supplied network information with any possible information

from a DHCP server.

run_setparms = boolean

Set to true indicating the host name is removed from the ﬁnal /etc/rc.conf.d/netconf

ﬁle, which will cause the set_parms application to run upon ﬁrst boot querying you for net-

working information.
