DHCP / BOOTP Relay
The BOOTP hops count limit allows the maximum number of hops (routers) that the BOOTP messages can be relayed through to be set. If a packet’s hop count is more than the hop count limit, the packet is dropped.The range is between 1 and 16 hops, with a default value of 4.The relay time threshold sets the minimum time (in seconds) that the Switch will wait before forwarding a BOOT REQUEST packet. If the value in the seconds field of the packet is less than the relay time threshold, the packet will be dropped.The range is between 0 and 65,536 seconds, with a default value of 0 seconds.
