Configuring Remote Access for AN and Passport ARN Routers
Router Not Sending BootP Responses
If a router between the AN/ANH or ARN router and the BootP server is receiving BootP requests but is failing to send BootP responses, do the following:
1.Use Site Manager to ensure that the BootP relay agent forwarding table associated with the router shows an IP address that is configured on the IP router.
2.Ensure that the input IP address is correct. If the Hops count is lower than the router’s position in the path, increase the Hops count.
For instructions, see “Creating the BootP Client Interface Table” on page
3.Use the Configuration Manager to ensure that BootP and IP are enabled on the incoming and outgoing interfaces.
4.Ensure that the link modules and drivers are enabled.
For instructions, see Configuring and Managing Routers with Site Manager.
BootP Server Not Sending BootP Responses
If the BootP server is receiving BootP requests but is failing to respond to them, do the following:
1.Follow the instructions in “Displaying the BootP Server IP Routes” on page
2.Follow the instructions in “Debugging the BootP Server” on page
3.Ensure that the /etc/inetd.conf file contains no more than one bootps entry.
If there is more than one entry, comment out the invalid entry. The valid entry is as follows:
bootps dgram udp wait root /etc/bootpd bootpd
4.Ensure that the tftp dgram entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file is correct for your system.
For instructions, see “Setting Up a TFTP Server” on page
5.See “Verifying the BootP Server Setup” on page B-14.
