Configuration
Configuration Methods
5 Create the appropriate directory structure and TFTP configuration
file for each LAN/GPIB Gateway, as noted in the T144 configuration
value you set in the /etc/bootptab file. Be sure you set
permissions on these directories and on the TFTP configuration file
to allow access by the bootpd daemon.
For example, the T144 value in the previous example /etc/
bootptab file was set to “E2050/gw1.cfg”. We will also assume
the default TFTP mode is being used and that the client system is
running HP-UX Version 9. Thus, in this example, you would:
n cd to the /usr/tftpdir directory.
n Create an E2050 subdirectory under /usr/tftpdir.
n cd to the E2050 subdirectory
n Create the TFTP configuration file, gw1.cfg, with your editor.
6 Edit the TFTP configuration file, adding the configuration values you
desire to set for the Gateway. (You only need to specify the non-
default values that you want.) The following information will help you
complete this file correctly.
This table lists the configuration values you can set in the TFTP file.
Also, see the example TFTP file that follows this table..
