Hints

This section contains a few hints for setting up ASN routers.

• We recommend that you first install a router in the same site as your BOOTP

server, Site Manager workstation, and intermediate routers to test the software

image, configuration file, and routing path. This test provides you with the

startup and troubleshooting experience you need to perform these tasks on

routers at remote sites. After you perform the test, move the test router to the

remote location you want, modify the configuration file for that router, and set

up the new paths.

• After you build and test a router configuration file, make copies of it on the

Site Manager workstation. Then modify the copies for each router in your

network rather than starting from scratch. To avoid mix-ups, make sure the

filename you assign to each configuration file is unique and meaningful for

each router.

• If you use TFTP to transfer the software image file to upgrade or restore the

router’s file system, specify the image shipped for the router you purchased. If

you boot a router with an image designed for use with another router type, the

router will fail to boot.

• If you upgrade all routers in the paths between the routers and the BOOTP

server to Version 7.80 or later (BayStream Version 5.00 or later) before you

set up the paths, it may be easier to isolate BOOTP and TFTP configuration

errors on the network.

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.
