Troubleshooting Gateway Configuration

Changing the Configuration Method

If you want to change the configuration method used for the Gateway, you can take one of three following actions. However, for Windows 95/98/Me/ 2000/NT client systems, you must use the Telnet configuration method.

Neither the BOOTP nor the BOOTP with TFTP configuration methods are available on Windows client systems. After you change the configuration method, see Chapter 3 to configure the Gateway to the new method.

1Telnet to the Gateway, modify the bootp: ON/OFF value and then use the Telnet reboot command.

CAUTION

Any client operations in progress and client connections will be terminated by the reboot command.

2Telnet to the Gateway and then do a Telnet factory-resetcommand. This changes the configuration values the default values and reboots the Gateway. This also sets the bootp: ON/OFF value to the default ON value. For HP-UX client systems, you can now use the BOOTP or the BOOTP with TFTP configuration method.

CAUTION

Any client operations in progress and client connections will be terminated by the factory-resetcommand when it reboots the Gateway.

3Press the Config Preset button on the back panel of the LAN/GPIB Gateway at the same time as you power-on the Gateway. This changes all configuration values to the default values. This includes setting the bootp: ON/OFF value to the default ON value. For HP-UX client systems, you can now use the BOOTP or the BOOTP with TFTP configuration method.
