Using Netboot Configuration Commands
This chapter provides instructions for using the
ifconfig
,
bconfig
, and
getcfg
commands to configure Netboot and Directed Netboot.
If you are not configuring the BayStack router yourself, you can determine the
appropriate syntax for these commands and provide the person at the router site
with the exact command lines to use.
To access a BayStack router command line, you need a management console
connection to the router. With a terminal or modem console connection, you can
view router diagnostic messages and use the
ifconfig
and
bconfig
commands to
configure Netboot and Directed Netboot. You use
getcfg
to verify a configuration.
To display a command-line login prompt, you can do one of the following:
• Wait for the BayStack router to local-boot (that is, wait for EZ-Install to fail).
• Interrupt the startup process by issuing a break sequence. This automatically
starts the AN Monitor, a firmware diagnostics monitor for BayStack routers.
The break sequence depends on the management console you are using. Some
terminals have specific break keys; others require a specific key sequence to
issue a break (for example, [Control]-c or ~ #). See the documentation for
your terminal or PC terminal emulator for the correct break sequence.
To log in to either the AN Monitor or the Technician Interface, enter
Manager
at
the login prompt.
The Technician Interface or AN Monitor command-line prompt appears. Proceed
to the appropriate section:
• Setting the Boot Configuration
• Setting the Netboot Interface Configuration
Note:
Be sure to issue the break sequence before EZ-Install completes.
Note:
Manager
is case-sensitive; use an uppercase M.
