Note: The BOOTP relay agent does not need to be turned on in all routers between
the client and server. The router adjacent to the client must be a relay agent. If the
router adjacent to the client has a configured set of BOOTREQUEST destinations
that are specific server addresses or subnet addresses, then the adjacent router is
the only router requiring relay agent functionality. If the adjacent relay agent does
not have either server or subnet addresses configured, then the BOOTREQUEST is
sent out through all of the adjacent router interfaces, and is addressed to the ALL
HOSTS broadcast for each interface. To allow these BOOTREQUESTS to be
forwarded to the server, each router in the path between the client and the server
must be a BOOTP relay agent.
Remote Address
The IP address of the remote interface that establishes the connection to the remote
autonomous system. Enter the address in dotted-decimal notation.
Remote ASN
The NIC-assigned decimal number identifying the remote autonomous system. Enter
the remote autonomous system number.
Retransmission
Time Out
Sets the number of seconds TFTP waits for an acknowledgment before
retransmitting a data message.
Default: 5 (seconds)
Retransmit ’Interval
Specifies the number of seconds between the TCP/IP router’s retransmission of
OSPF link state advertisements.
Default: 5 (seconds)
Options
5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 (seconds)
Note: Retransmit Interval should be set to a value greater than the expected round
trip delay between any two routers on the backbone.
RIP Interface Cost
Sets the cost for each router hop. Standard RIP implementations assign a cost of 1 to
each hop. If you increase this RIP increment, the upper boundary set by RIP
Network Diameter (beyond which a network is declared unreachable) is more
rapidly attained.
Default: 1
RIP Network
Diameter
Determines the maximum number of hops for a IP datagram as it moves through an
internet from source to destination. Standard Internet usage limits hops to a
maximum 15. However, if every router within your internet can be configured to
accept the identical number of hops, you can increase the RIP Network Diameter up
to a maximum of 127.
