Configuring Netboot and Directed Netboot
You can use the following commands to configure the AN/DC or ANH-8/DC for
Netboot and Directed Netboot:
• Use the
i
fconfig
command to configure the router’s initial IP interface to the
network. You need this information to complete the procedure in “Continuing
with Netboot” in Chapter 3.
• Use the
bconfig
command to specify the location and name of the AN/ANH
software image and configuration file. You need this information to complete
the procedure in “Continuing with Directed Netboot” in Chapter 3.
Contact your network administrator for additional assistance in determining the
appropriate
ifconfig
command and
bconfig
command that you need for the AN/
DC or ANH-8/DC at your site. (Your network administrator has information on
these commands in Connecting BayStack AN and ANH Systems to a Network.)
Using the ifconfig Command
You use the
ifconfig
command to do the following:
• Configure the router’s initial IP interface to the network. (Note that the initial
IP interface should be a synchronous interface if you are using EZ-Install.)
You also use the same procedure to configure other synchronous interfaces for
the Netbooting procedure.
• Configure Ethernet interfaces for the Netbooting procedure.
• Enable or disable Netbooting on an interface.
The following sections describe each use of the
ifconfig
command.
