APC AP9617 Network Card User Manual


 
Quick Configuration
BOOTP. You can use an RFC951-compliant BOOTP server to
configure the TCP/IP settings the Management Card needs.
1. Enter the Management Card’s
MAC
and
IP
addresses, the
subnet mask, and default gateway settings, and an optional
Bootup File Name in the
BOOTPTAB
file of the
BOOTP
server.
2. When the Management Card reboots, the
BOOTP
server
provides it with the
TCP/IP
settings.
If you specified a bootup file name, the Management
Card will attempt to transfer that file from a
TFTP
or
FTP
server residing on the
BOOTP
server. The
Management Card will assume all settings specified in
the bootup file.
If you did not specify a bootup file name, the
Management Card can be configured remotely by using
Telnet or by using the Web interface: User Name and
Password are both
apc
, by default.
See the Network Management Card Quality
Assurance slip for the
MAC
address.
You must use the
APC
Management
Card Wizard or the
APC
initialization
(*.ini) text-to-binary configuration
(*.cfg) conversion utility, i2c300, to
create the bootup file. To create a bootup
file, see the
BOOTP
section in the
Management Card Addendum
(.\doc\addendum.pdf).
