Using the BayStack 350 10/100 Autosense Switch

#Caution

#Omitting a Forward slash (/) when the entry is continued to the next line,

#can cause the interruption of the booting process or the incorrect image file

#to download. Always include forward slashes where needed.

#

#Important Note:

#If a leading zero (0) is used in the IP address it is calculated

#as an octal number. If the leading character is "x" (upper- or lower-case),

#it is calculated as a hexadecimal number. For example, if an IP address

#with a base 10 number of 45 is written as .045 in the BOOTPTAB.TXT file, the

#Bootp protocol assigns .037 to the client.

#

#Global entries are defined that specify the parameters used by every device.

#Note that hardware type (ht) is specified first in the global entry.

#The following global entry is defined for an Ethernet device. Note that this is where

#a client's subnet mask (sm) and default gateway (gw) are defined.
