HP-UX IP Address and Client Management Administrator's Guide HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3

The following output is displayed:
Received BOOTREPLY from hpserver.hp.com (15.19.8.119)
Hardware Address: 08:00:09:03:01:65 Hardware Type: ethernet
IP Address: 15.19.8.37
Boot File: /xterminal
RFC 1048 Vendor Information: Subnet Mask: 255.255.248.0
Gateway: 15.19.8.1
Domain Name Server: 15.19.8.119 Host Name: term01.hp.com
This shows that the BOOTP server responded with information that corresponds to the entry
in the /etc/bootptab file.
3. Remove the ba tag entry from the /etc/bootptab file.
Example 2: Adding a Relay Entry
Figure 3-2 shows the network configuration for a BOOTP relay agent.
Figure 3-2 Example Configuration: Relay Entry
In this example, the network contains HP workstations and other vendors’ systems. Server B is
the BOOTP server that contains boot information for the HP workstations. When Server A receives
a bootrequest, it relays requests from HP workstations to Server B. Bootrequests for other vendors’
systems are relayed to Server C. In this example, Server A (the BOOTP relay agent) is also the
gateway between the client’s network and the server’s network.
The following information is added to the /etc/bootptab file on BOOTP Server A:
defaults: ht=ether all_hp:\ tc=defaults:\
ha=080009000000:\ hm=FFFFFF000000:\
bp=15.4.3.136 others:\ tc=defaults:\
ha=000000000000:\ hm=000000000000:\
bp=15.4.3.142
The all_hp entry causes bootrequests from HP workstations (machines with hardware addresses
that begin with 080009) to be relayed to IP address 15.4.3.136 (Server B). Bootrequests from other
hardware addresses (presumed to be machines other than HP machines) are relayed to IP address
15.4.3.142 (Server C).
The following information is added to the /etc/bootptab file on BOOTP Server B:
xterm02: hn: ht=ether: ha=08000902CA00: \
