Note: The message Configuring interface IP parameters for
netbooting only appears if you are booting ove r a network
server and your configuration has insufficient IP
information.
The streamlined se tu p co m m and f ac i li t y co n ti nue s , p ro mpting you fo
interface parameters for each installed interface. The facil ity asks i f an
interface is in use. If so, the facility prompts you to provide an IP ad
dress and subnet mask bits for the interface. Enter the subnet mask bits
as a decimal value, such as 5.
This example shows the portion of the streamlined setup command fa-
cility that prompts for interface parameters. In the example, the facility
is prompting for Ethernet0 interface parameters and Serial0 interface
parameters:
Configuring interface Ethernet0:
Is this interface in use? [yes]:
Configure IP on this interface? [ye s]:
IP address for this interface: 192.195.7 8.50
Number of bits in subnet field [0]: 5
Class C network is 192.195.78.0, 5 subnet bits; mask is 255.255. 255.248
Configuring interface Serial0: Is this interface in us e? [ yes]:
Configure IP on this interface? [ye s]:
IP address for this interface: 192.195.7 8.34
Number of bits in subnet field [5]:
Class C network is 192.195.78.0, 5 subnet bits; mask is 255.255. 255.248
The configuration information you provide on this screen is temporary
and exists only so you can boot your system. When you reload the sys-
tem, your original configuration remains intact. If your startup config-
uration is corrupted, enter the setup comm and facility and configur
the basic parameters. Then issue the copy running-config
startup-config command to write this configuration to
NVRAM.
