3.2.1.5 ei*0_inet_init or ew*0_inet_init
The ei*0_inet_init or ew*0_inet_init environment variable determines
whether the interface’s internal Internet database is initialized from
nvram or from a network server (through the bootp protocol).
Legal values are nvram and bootp. The default value is bootp. Set this
environment variable if you are booting Tru64 UNIX from a RIS server.
To list the network devices on your system, enter the show device command.
The Ethernet controllers start with the letters “ei” or “ew,” for example, ewa0.
The third letter is the adapter ID for the specific Ethernet controller. Replace
the asterisk (*) with the adapter ID letter when entering the command.
The syntax is:
set ei*0_inet_init value or
set ew*0_inet_init value
Example
P00>>> set ewa0_inet_init bootp
