Appendix B

Implementation Notes

This appendix contains implementation hints, reminders, and a few important

notes you might have missed earlier in this guide.

Notes

• Bay Networks currently supports BOOTP service on UNIX workstations, but

not on PCs. To use Netboot when your Site Manager workstation is a PC,

transfer the image and conﬁguration ﬁles from the PC to a UNIX workstation

that is conﬁgured as a BOOTP server.

• You cannot use EZ-Install or Netboot directly from an ASN Token Ring or

FDDI interface.

• You need Version 8.10 (BNX Version 5.00) or later to perform Directed

Netboot.

• If you have a LAN protocol analyzer available, you may want to use it to

troubleshoot BOOTP server communication errors. (Appendix A provides

guidelines for using Packet Capture and an analyzer to isolate these errors.)

• Versions earlier than 7.80 (BNX Version 5.00) do not include the Technician

Interface Packet Capture utility.

Note: You can change the name of the asn.exe ﬁle in the local ﬁle system —

even if the

bconﬁg command is

boot image=network.

If you change the

name of the software image ﬁle, you must use the form

<new_name>.exe

When you boot with a renamed image, you are performing a “named boot.”

However, this does not affect the pathname of the image retrieved from the

network. The “

” (no volume) symbol allows a named boot or conﬁguration if

at least one of the two

bconﬁg settings is local.
