Hi,

As the subj. says, I'm wondering how a router running without any
statically configured default route is able to pick up an image from a
remote tftpserver. In this case, the router is normally running IS-IS,
and relys on a default (or specific for that matter) from this IGP.

My guess is, that CLNS-routing isn't supported in the bootloader, so what
am I missing?

Is the interface (and in case of multiaccess media, also the IP-address)
storede in nonvolatile memory when tftp booting is configured?

TIA

/Niels Chr.
