Bootstrap Protocol Relay Configuration

The Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) Relay Menu is used to allow hosts to obtain their configura-
tions from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. The BOOTP configuration
enables the switch to forward a client request for an IP address to two DHCP/BOOTP servers
with IP addresses that have been configured on the

GbE Switch Module

.

BOOTP relay is turned off by default.
