Booting from a TFTP/FTP Server
Table A-1 Additional TFTP Primary Boot Source Parameters (continued)
Parameter | Configuration |
|
|
| Token ring port |
| If your boot source is reachable through a token ring port, you are prompted |
| to configure the following field: |
| ■ Token Ring Speed |
| This setting must correspond to the token ring line setting (the default is |
| 4 Mbps). |
| ■ Token Ring Baud Rate |
| Make sure the setting of this field matches that of your token ring line. |
|
|
Boot Protocol | Make sure the Boot Protocol is set to TFTP. |
| If you are configuring your bridge/router to use TFTP only, set the Address |
| Discovery Protocol to Local Configured Addresses. |
| If you are configuring your bridge/router to use TFTP and BOOTP, set the |
| Address Discovery Protocol to BOOTP. |
|
|
Boot Sources | Make sure the Boot Sources are set to Primary and Secondary. |
|
|
MAC Address | Make sure this parameter is set to the CEC 20 MAC address. |
|
|
ARP Format | If your boot source is reachable through a token ring port, make sure that the |
| setting of this parameter agrees with the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) |
| format used on your token ring network: noncanonical. |

What Next? You may set up the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to allow network management of the bridge/router. For information on this service, refer to “Setting Up the Simple Network Management Protocol” on page
Refer to Chapter 6 to configure basic settings.
To set other boot options, refer to the SysconF appendix in Reference for
