B.11.1 Adding Clients

Adding a client creates an entry in the BootP Tool for a specific gateway.

To add a client to the list without using a template, take these 3 steps:

1.Click on the Add New Client Icon;

a client with blank parameters is displayed.

2.Enter values in the fields on the right side of the window, using the guidelines for the fields in Section B.11.5 on page 197.

3.Click Apply to save this entry to the list of clients, or click Apply & Reset to save this entry to the list of clients and send a reset message to that gateway to immediately implement the settings.

Note: To use Apply & Reset you must enable ARP Manipulation in the Preferences window. Also, you must have administrator privileges for the computer you are using.

An easy way to create several clients that use similar settings is to create a template. For information on how to create a template, refer to Section B.12 on page 199.
