BootP Automatic IP Configuration/MAC Address

The BayStack 410-24T switch has a unique 48-bit hardware address, or MAC address, that is printed on a label on the back panel. You use this MAC address when you configure the network BootP server to recognize the BayStack 410-24T switch BootP requests.

A properly configured BootP server enables the switch to automatically learn its assigned IP address, subnet mask, IP address of the default router (default gateway), and software image file name.

When the switch is participating in a stack configuration, a Stack MAC address is automatically assigned during the stack initialization. The base unit’s MAC address, with a software offset, is used for the Stack MAC address.

For example, if the base unit’s MAC address is:

00-00-82-99-44-00

and the Stack software offset is:

1F

then the Stack MAC address becomes:

00-00-82-99-44-1F

If another unit in the stack is assigned as the base unit, the MAC address of the new base unit (with offset) now applies to the stack configuration. The original stack IP address still applies to the new base unit.

For an example of a BootP configuration file, see Appendix F, “Sample BootP Configuration File.”
