Table A-1Additional 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 6-22.

Refer to Chapter 6 to configure basic settings.

To set other boot options, refer to the SysconF appendix in Reference for

NETBuilder Family Software.
