Connecting BayStack AN and ANH Systems to a Network
2-8
8. The person at the AN/ANH site boots the router. (See the hardware Installing
and Starting guide for the AN or ANH.)
After the router boots, it gets the software image and configuration file from
the BOOTP server.
If the configuration file meets your network requirements, the router starts
bridging and routing traffic.
You can use the Site Manager Statistics Manager and Events Manager tools to
verify that the router is routing traffic according to the configuration you want.
(See Managing Routers and BNX Platforms.)
Directed Netboot
Completing the Directed Netboot option requires the following steps:
1. You use the Configuration Manager in local mode to create a complete
configuration file for the router. (See Cha
pter 4 and Configuring Routers.)
2. You set up the network to support TFTP. (See Cha
pter 3.)
3. You ensure that there is a network connection from a synchronous or Ethernet
interface on the AN/ANH to the upstream router.
4. The person at the AN/ANH site establishes a Technician Interface session (or
you establish a session via modem). (See the hardware Installing and Starting
guide for the AN or ANH.)
5. The person at the AN/ANH console issues
bconfig and ifconfig commands to
configure a synchronous or Ethernet interface for Directed Netboot. (See
Cha
pter 5 if you are using a remote Technician Interface session, or, if at the
router site, the hardware Installing and Starting guide for the AN or ANH.)
6. You install the netboot.exe file in the BOOTP server’s file system, and make
sure the image and application files reside in the specified directory.
(See Cha
pter 3.)
Note: If the AN/ANH will connect to the upstream router using a Frame Relay
circuit, be sure the upstream router is running Router Software Version 8.00 or
higher.
