3. The IP address, boot image filename and the configuration file name are reserved for the system and
provided in the DHCP reply (one-file read method). The system receives its IP address, subnet mask,
DHCP server IP, TFTP server address, DNS server IP, bootfile name and the configuration filename
from the DHCP server.
If a DHCP offer has neither an image path or configuration file path it is considered to be an invalid
BMP DHCP offer and the offer is ignored. The first DHCP offer with IP address, FTOS image and
configuration file, or the IP address and FTOS image, or the IP address and configuration file is
chosen.
4. The DHCP OFFER is selected.
a All other ports except the port on which the offer was received and selected are set to shutdown
mode.
00:01:33: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %JUMPSTART-5-DHCP_OFFER: DHCP acquired IP 30.0.0.20 mask 255.255.0.0
server IP 30.1.1.1.
00:01:33: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %JUMPSTART-5-DHCP_OFFER: DHCP tftp IP 30.0.0.1 dns IP 30.0.0.1 router
IP 30.0.0.14.
00:01:33: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %JUMPSTART-5-DHCP_OFFER: DHCP image file FTOS-SE-8.3.10.1.bin.
00:01:33: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %JUMPSTART-5-DHCP_OFFER: DHCP config file pt-s4810-12.
00:01:33: %STKUNIT0-M:CP %JUMPSTART-5-DHCP_OFFER: DHCP stacking info NIL.
5. The system sends a unicast message to the server to retrieve the named configuration file and/or boot
file from the base directory of the server.
a If an optional
bootfile-name is used, the file name can be 256 bytes. If a filename field is
specified in the DHCP offer, the filename can be 128 bytes. The name can be a fully qualified URL
or it can be a file name only.
b When an FTOS build image is found, the system compares that build image to the version
currently loaded on the chassis.
