Set Hardware xx-xx-xx Specifies the last three numbers of the server’s
Ethernet address. The first three numbers will
be supplied automatically.
The Ethernet address should have been set at
the factory. Setting an incorrect address could
cause serious network problems.
Set IPAddress ip_address Specifies this server’s IP address. Uses the stan-
dard numeric format.
Set Loadhost ip_address Specifies the host to attempt to load the file
from. The IP address should be in standard nu-
meric format (no text names are allowed).
Set RARP {Enabled, Disabled} Enables or disables the sending of RARP que-
ries during the boot sequence. It is enabled by
default.
Set Secondary ip_address Specifies a backup loadhost. The IP address
should be in standard numeric format (no text
names are allowed). The backup loadhost will
be queried if the primary host cannot load the
server.
Set Software filename Specifies the name of the file to load. The MPS
will automatically add .SYS to the filename you
specify. Note that all protocols must have a file-
name specified (either the default or set by the
user). For more information, see Appendix D.
TCP/IP users must use the Software option to
specify the loadhost, the loadfile, and their own
network address.
TFTP users can specify a complete path name
(up to 31 characters) if the file is located in a di-
rectory other than the default.The case of the
filename must match that of the filename load-
ed onto the host computer.

mands to view the current MPS setup.
