Configuration Methods

An example TFTP file follows. Consult your system documentation for any other steps required to complete the TFTP configuration file.

#The E2050 gw1 Configuration File hostname: E2050

#Timeouts lan-timeout: 7200 io-timeout: 240

#IP allow list

allow: 156.140.34.2 15.2.*

#GPIB configuration hpib-addr: 17 hpib-name: hpib1 hpib-unit: 8

7Once you have added the configuration values you want, save and close the TFTP configuration file(s).

8Power on the Gateway by plugging-in the power cord to the power outlet (wall outlet).

As soon as it completes its hardware self-test, the Gateway will begin sending BOOTP requests to the BOOTP server. While the Gateway is sending BOOTP requests, the LAN Conn (LAN Connect) LED on the front panel of the Gateway will flash rapidly.

The BOOTP server should respond with the BOOTP response to configure the Gateway. When the Gateway receives a valid response from the BOOTP server, the LAN Conn LED will stop flashing.

9Test that the Gateway has received the BOOTP response and has configured itself by using the ping command. This command allows you to test general network connectivity between your client computer system and the LAN/GPIB Gateway.
