Figure 5-1:Using SLARP to Acquire the New Router's IP
Address
zIn response to BOOTP or RARP requests, an IP address is sent
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
does not reside on the directly attached network segment, routers
between newrouter and the BOOTP server can be configured with
the ip helper-address command to allow the r equest and
response to be forwarded between segments, as shown in Figur
5-2.
