<host name>:ht=<hardware type>:vm=<vendor magic>:\ :ha=<hardware address>:ip=<IP address>:\ :sm=<subnet mask>:gw=<gateway field>
Example:
npsname:ht=ether:vm=rfc1048:\
:ha=00408c100086:ip=192.168.3.191:\
:sm=255.255.255.0:gw=192.168.1.1

❏The ha field is the Ethernet address/node address and the ip field is the IP address of your AXIS 5400.
❏The gw and sm fields correspond to the default router address and subnet mask.
❏If the host name has not been mapped to an IP address, simply replace the host name entry with the IP address in the example above.
2.If necessary, update your host table and alias name databases, as required by your system.
3.If it is not already running, start the BOOTP daemon. This is typically performed using the bootpd command.
4.Restart the AXIS 5400 to download the IP address, default router address, and subnet mask.
The AXIS 5400 can automatically download a customized config file from a TFTP server. Just add the name of the config file and the TFTP server’s IP address to your boot table. The config file is downloaded immediately after the AXIS 5400 receives its IP address.
