799.1 | LPS17 need RFC1048 | MDR01::VENTURA | MCS Madrid | Fri Mar 14 1997 04:32 | 14 |
|
More information:
LPS17 and Digital Unix are in different subnets and, between
them there is a DECnis at local site and the Routeabout at remote
site.
The LPS17 need a load of RFC1048 system to receive subnet mask and
gateway information.
I think that is not possible to boot the LPS17 trough the
Routeabout because it complains RFC951 that it's older than RFC1048.
Anybody could confirm this?

799.2 | it should work - see earlier topics that describe how its broken | MARVIN::RIGBY | No such thing as an alpha beta | Fri Mar 14 1997 05:15 | 5 |
| I don't think that its specifically that the RFC supported is too old, there
have been other notes in this conference recently indicating that BOOTP relay
has been broken - especially if DHCP is used over it.
It should work - raise an IPMT case to get it fixed.

| No please don't raise (another) case, we have enough already!
Plus I believe the fix is now available. I don't know the status of
the IPMT cases but by early April a fix kit for the RouteAbouts &
DECswitches will be out and will incorporate the fix.

| On the other hand, maybe filing an IPMT is the best way to ensure you
get the fixed kit ASAP.
The fix is now available from support channels.

799.5 | Available in easynet? | MDR01::VENTURA | MCS Madrid | Mon Mar 17 1997 03:54 | 6 |
| Thanks to all,
I'll look for the fix, but is it available for copy somewhere
in easynet?

| Not right now. When the next maintenance release comes out (early
April) it will be. If you need a fix before that you'll have to
contact the official support channels.
