Configuring Remote Access
2-2 114084 Rev. A
After you select the initial startup configuration and set up the network (as
described in this guide), you instruct the person at the router site to begin the
appropriate startup option.
EZ-Install
You can use EZ-Install for the initial startup if
• There is a communications link between the AN/ANH/ARN and an upstream
router over an HDLC or Frame Relay interface.
• A directory on a BOOTP server contains a customized configuration file for
the AN/ANH/ARN.
EZ-Install is the default option for a new router. It is the easiest option for the
person at the AN/ANH/ARN site to perform, because the network automatically
supplies the IP address and configuration file.
Netboot
You can use Netboot if
• The AN/ANH/ARN has a communications link to an upstream router over an
Ethernet, HDLC, Frame Relay, or Token Ring (ARN only) interface.
• You establish a local console or modem connection with the AN/ANH/ARN.
• A directory on a BOOTP server contains the software image file (krnl_an.exe
for the AN/ANH or krnl_arn.exe for the ARN) and a network configuration
file customized for the router.
• You configure an IP address for the router’s boot interface.
Netboot takes longer than EZ-Install, but minimizes the cost of line usage and the
saturation of the router’s memory.
Note: As an alternative to another person performing the initial startup at the
remote site, you can perform these tasks using a modem connection.
