HI

Thanks for your response, operation wise I got clear picture for bootp, but
one think still not clear is

Ex:

ip dhcp server 10.1.1.1 (config mode)

ip helper-address 10.1.1.1 (interface mode)

Both commands are configured to send the dhcp request to the server 10.1.1.1.
 I just would like understand the difference between these two..

Regards.
Pandi
