Boot Mode Transition. Tag 2, Len 1, Data 1/2
This option 43 setting enables or disables the
After IP Assignment
option
which, by default, causes the
Boot mode
option to base its setting on the
server that provided the network assignment values (
DHCP Only
or
BOOTP Only
):
• A data value of 1 disables the
After IP Assignment
option. The
Boot
mode
option remains as
DHCP & BOOTP
after network values are
assigned successfully. Whenever the Management Card reboots, it will
request its network assignment first from a BOOTP server, and then, if
necessary, from a DHCP server.
• A data value of 2 enables the
After IP Assignment
option. The
Boot
mode
option switches to
DHCP Only
when the Management Card
accepts the DHCP response. Whenever the Management Card
reboots, it will request its network assignment from a DHCP server,
only.
