Configuring DSLPipe Plug and Play
APX 8000/MAX TNT/DSLTNT Physical Interface Configuration Guide Preliminary May 9, 2000 17-15
Configuring the DSLTNT
DSLPipe Plug and Play support requires the following configuration on the DSLTNT:
• BOOTP Relay enabled
• A nailed DSL connection to the DSLPipe
• A Frame Relay profile that makes use of the DSL line
• A Connection profile for each DSLPipe unit
This section does not include the DSLTNT IP and DNS configurations, which are required for
Plug and Play to work. For details about configuring IP routing and DNS, see the
APX 8000/MAX TNT/DSLTNT WAN, Routing and Tunneling Configuration Guide.
Configuring BOOTP Relay
The DSLTNT must be set up for BOOTP Relay to support Plug and Play in DSLPipe units.
When you enable BOOTP Relay, the DSLTNT can forward DHCP request packets to a DHCP
server and forward DHCP responses back to the requesting client.
If more you specify more than one DHCP server, the DSLTNT uses the first server until it
becomes unavailable. Once it starts using the second DHCP server, it continues using that
server until it becomes unavailable, at which time it switches back to using the first server
again.
To enable BOOTP Relay, proceed as in the following example:
1 Read the IP-Global profile:
admin> read ip-global
IP-GLOBAL read
2 List the BOOTP-Relay profile:
admin> list bootp-relay
[in IP-GLOBAL:bootp-relay]
active = no
bootp-servers = [ 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ]
3 Activate BOOTP Relay:
admin> set active=yes
4 Specify a DHCP server using the BOOTP-Servers setting. For example:
admin> set bootp-servers 1 =192.168.7.62
5 If necessary, specify a second DHCP server. For example:
admin> set bootp-servers 2 =192.168.7.72
6 Write the IP-Global profile to save your changes:
admin> write
IP-GLOBAL written
Configuring the SDSL profile
In the following example procedure, the network administrator configures an SDSL line in
slot 3 of the DSLTNT:
