ctDLForceBootp

Module: CTRON-DOWNLOAD-MIB

OID (symbolic): CTRON-DOWNLOAD-MIB::ctDLForceBootp

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.1.5.8.1.14

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: When set to 1, this object forces the client to send a BOOTP request packet when rebooting. The client will make several attempts before timing out if a BOOTP server does not respond. This object remains set.

What is ctDLForceBootp?

This is a persistent flag that, once set to 1, makes the device always issue a BOOTP request packet on every subsequent reboot, and the setting remains in effect afterward. It is useful when a device should always fetch its boot parameters from a BOOTP server rather than rely on stored configuration. For example, an admin sets this to 1 on a newly racked chassis so it always asks the BOOTP server for its network parameters on every future restart.
