Creating a BOOTP/DHCP Server Entry

The BOOTP/DHCP Server Entry allows you to configure a Cajun Router as a
BOOTP/DHCP Relay Agent between a BOOTP/DHCP server and the source client. Only
the locally attached clients will be able to find the BOOTP/DHCP server if the
BOOTP/DHCP server entry is configured on your switch. If you have a network with
multiple switches, and you want at least one client that is attached to each switch to be
able to access the BOOTP/DHCP server, then you must configure each of those switches
with a BOOTP/DHCP server entry.

To create a BOOTP/DHCP entry:

1. In the IP Configuration section of the Web Agent window, click BOOTP/DHCP

Servers. The IP BOOTP/DHCP Servers dialog box opens.

2. Click CREATE. The Add BOOTP/DHCP Server Entry dialog box opens.

3. In the IP Address field, enter the IP address of the BOOTP/DHCP server on your

network.

4. Click CREATE to save your changes, or CANCEL to restore previous settings.

Note: It is possible to create multiple BOOTP/DHCP Server Entries if necessary.

IP Multicast

IP Multicast enables a single host to distribute information to multiple recipients. To do
this, multicast protocols use class D IP addresses to specify specific multicast groups to
which information is sent. The class D IP address used by multicast routing protocol
ranges from 224.0.0.1 to 224.0.0.255. The class D IP addresses available for general use
are 224.0.1.0 to 239.255.255.255.
