Starting the ARN

Continuing with Local Boot (the Quick-Start Procedure)

Note: Continuing with the local boot option requires that you have already logged in to the Technician Interface or ARN monitor command line software. Refer to the previous section, “Logging in to the Command Line Software,” for instructions.

You can use either the ARN monitor or the Technician Interface to configure the ARN to local boot. However, you must use the Technician Interface to run the Quick-Start script.

Before starting the local boot procedure, ask your network administrator to assist you in completing the Quick-Start worksheets in Appendix B.

To use the local boot feature:

1.At the command line prompt, type the following command and press the Return key to configure the ARN to use its local config file:

bconfig config local

Note: The default setting for finding the software image is local; you do not have to change this setting for the local boot option.

2.Type the following command and press the Return key to boot the ARN: boot

Note: If the ARN tries to local boot and cannot find a software image or configuration file, it attempts to netboot once. If both attempts fail, the ARN continues to local boot and netboot until it boots successfully. If the ARN remains in this loop, refer to “Interrupting the Boot Process” earlier in this chapter.
