Network Management Card: Quick Configuration
With Boot Mode set to DHCP & BOOTP (the default setting), the Network Management Card attempts to discover a properly configured server. It first searches for a BOOTP server, then a DHCP server, and repeats this pattern until it discovers a BOOTP or DHCP server.
See “BOOTP” on this page or “DHCP” on page 50.
BOOTP. You can use an
The BOOTP only setting assumes that a properly configured BOOTP server is available to provide TCP/IP settings to APC Network Management Cards. If a BOOTP server is unavailable, see “APC Device IP Configuration Wizard” on page 48, “Local access to the control console” on page 51, or “Remote access to the control console” on page 52 to configure the TCP/IP settings.
1.Enter the Network Management Card’s MAC and IP addresses, the subnet mask and default gateway settings, and an optional bootup file name in the BOOTPTAB file of the BOOTP server.
For the MAC address, look on the nameplate of the NetworkAIR IR Precision Air Conditioner.
Note
2.When the Network Management Card reboots, the BOOTP server provides it with the TCP/IP settings.
–If you specified a bootup file name, the Network Management Card attempts to transfer that file from the BOOTP server using TFTP or FTP. The Network Management Card assumes all settings specified in the bootup file.
–If you did not specify a bootup file name, the Network Management Card can be configured remotely by using the control console or the Web interface (user name and password are both apc, by default).
To create the bootup file, see your BOOTP server documentation.
