from the BOOTP or RARP server to newrouter.

A BOOTP or RARP server must have already been set up to map
newrouter's MAC address to its IP address. If the BOOTP server

between newrouter and the BOOTP server can be configured with
the

ip helper-address

command to allow the request and

response to be forwarded between segments, as shown in
