The following table describes the parameters that you set to configure BOOTP policies:
Table12-3 BOOTP Policy Parameters
Parameter Description
Index Number Determines the sequence in which a BOOTP
request is compared to each policy. You
assign this number when defining the policy.
The request is applied to the policy with the
lowest index first, then precedes
incrementally. Upon finding a match, the
action defined for the policy is taken, and no
further policies are applied.
Policy Server List A list of IP addresses to which you want the
current cable interface to forward BOOTP
messages.
Match Criteria Matching MAC addresses of BOOTP clients.
These devices are either permitted to send
BOOTP messages to specified BOOTP servers
or denied permission to send BOOTP
messages. Using masks, you can specify a
range of MAC addresses.
Policy Action The action that you want the system to take
upon finding a matching BOOTP request. You
can configure the interface to do the
following:
■Permit the BOOTP message to be
forwarded to BOOTP servers.
■Deny (drop) the BOOTP message from
being forwarded to BOOTP servers.
