Entering Conﬁguration Data

Basic LS2020 Configuration Tasks

Caution If you answer y (yes) to this query, the system overwrites the existing conﬁguration ﬁles for this particular LS2020 node, effectively deleting the ﬁles.

If conﬁguration ﬁles are present and you choose not to overwrite them, the setsnmpconﬁg script cannot continue. Instead, the script exits and returns you to the command line.

If conﬁguration ﬁles are not present, or if they are present and you choose to overwrite them, a script prompts you to enter network conﬁguration information, as outlined in the following section, “Entering Conﬁguration Data.”

In this procedure, a script prompts you to enter basis LS2020 conﬁguration information. In performing this procedure, it is assumed that you have already initiated the boot sequence, as previously described in the section “Connecting the Terminal to the NP.”

Note If a problem occurs with the LS2020 hard disk or the platform software, an error message is displayed instead of the system output shown in Step 1 below. In this case, refer to Appendix B Software Reinstallation.

Step 1 Observe the system’s boot display:
