Solicitation
Address
Interface/
IP address
- Address to which a client should send router solicitation requests.
Length: 4 octets
33 Static
Route
Interface/
IP address
pairs
- Static routes that a client will install in its routing cache. If multiple routes to the
same destination are specified, they are listed in descending order of priority.
Routes consist of a list of IP address pairs: the first is the destination address,
the second is the router for the destination. The default route 0.0.0.0 is an
illegal destination for a static route.
Length: 8-octet minimum; multiples of 8
34 Trailer
Encapsu-
lation
Interface/
Boolean
(hex)
false Specifies if a client will negotiate the use of trailers (RFC-893) when using the
ARP protocol.
Length: 1 octet
Values: 0 = do not use; 1 = use
35 ARP Cache
Timeout
Interface/
32-bit hex
integer
60 Timeout in seconds for ARP cache entries.
Length: 4-octets
36 Ethernet
Encapsu-
lation
Interface/
Boolean
(hex)
false
(1.e.,
894
style)
Specifies if a client will use Ethernet Version 2 (RFC-894) or IEEE 802.3
(RFC-1042) encapsulation if port is Ethernet.
Length: 1 octet
Value: 0 uses RFC-894 coding; 1 uses RFC-1042 coding
37 TCP
Default TTL
Interface/
8-bit integer
(> 0)
60 Default TTL a client will use when sending TCP segments.
Length: 1 octet, expressed in hex
Value: minimum 1
38 TCP
Keepalive
Interval
Interface/
32-bit hex
integer
0 (keep-
-alives
not
generat-
ed)
Interval in seconds that the TCP client will wait before sending a keep-alive
message on a TCP connection. The time is specified as a 32-bit unsigned
integer. A value of zero indicates that the client will not generate keep-alive
messages on connections unless specifically requested by an application.
Length: 4-octets
39 TCP
Keepalive
Garbage
Interface/
Boolean
(hex)
false
(off)
Specifies if a client will send TCP keep-alive messages with an octet of
garbage for compatibility with older implementations.
Length: 1 octet
Values: 0=do not send; 1=send
40 NIS
Domain
Servers/
ASCII string
- Name of a client's NIS domain.
Length: 4-octet minimum
41 Network
Information
Servers
Servers
/IP address
list
- IP addresses indicating NIS servers available to a client. List in order of
preference.
Length: 4-octet minimum; multiples of 4
42 NTP
Servers
Servers
/IP address
list
- IP addresses indicating NTP servers available to a client. List in order of
preference.
Length: 4-octet minimum; multiples of 4
