tftp not working through a DEC900ef

["Bryant, Kym" <kbryant@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I would like some advice on a bootp/tftp problem we are experiencing with a
alpha 1200 running 4.0G

We have a rack mounted piece of equipment that requires a bootp boot. This
takes place across two subnets thru a DEC900EF standalone. One network is a
fddi ring attached to the alpha server and the other is 10 base2 connected
to the rack.

We believe that the bootp is working ok, as we have tried a similar alpha on
the same fddi network and its ok. But when we require the bootp/ and tftp
transfer to take place across the router _DEC900ef  from one subnet to the
other I get a message which says.

I have placed  a DPWS 433au on the 10base2 network and have tried to do a
tftp across the 900EF but receive 
 
Error Code 2: access violation.

Can anyone help me track down the meaning of this, or tell me what is going
on.
