BOOTP & DHCP configuration
TCP/IP Configuration, which you access by selecting the Administration tab, the Network option on
the top menu bar, and TCP/IP on the left navigation menu, identifies how the TCP/IP settings will be
defined. The possible settings are Manual, DHCP, BOOTP, and DHCP & BOOTP (the default setting).
With the TCP/IP Configuration setting DHCP & BOOTP, the Network Management Card attempts to
discover a properly configured server. It first searches for a BOOTP server, then a DHCP server, and
repeats this pattern until it discovers a BOOTP or DHCP server.
BOOTP. You can use an RFC951-compliant BOOTP server to configure the TCP/IP settings for the
Network Management Card.
1. Enter the Network Management Card’s MAC and IP addresses, the subnet mask and default
gateway settings, and an optional bootup file name in the BOOTPTAB file of the BOOTP server.

The DHCP & BOOTP setting assumes that a properly configured DHCP or BOOTP
server is available to provide TCP/IP settings to Network Management Cards.
