Install Guide

3.Add the host name and address, and then save the file. For example, for a MIL-4511H called alpha with an IP address 192.185.2.3, add this line:

192.185.2.3 alpha

4.Edit BOOTP in the /etc directory containing the hostname of the MIL-4511H, hardware type, hardware address, and the IP address. Format the entry:

<hostname of MIL-4511H>:ht=1:ha=<hardware address>:ip=<ip address>

For example, an entry named alpha, with a hardware address of 0040c8010203 and an IP address of 199.86.12.183:

alpha:ht=1:ha=0040c8010203:ip=199.86.12.183:

5.Start the BOOTP daemon by typing the command /usr/etc/BOOTPd. The MIL-4511H will broadcast BOOTP packets and will obtain a response from the server and will use the IP address specified in /etc/BOOTP file.

To set the IP Address with BOOTP on a HP/UX system:

1.Login as root on the system and start SAM, the System Administration Tool, by entering sam at the command line.

2.Use a text editor to open the /etc/hosts file and add the following line:

192.185.2.3 alpha

3.Use the following menu sequence in sam:

Networking--> Communications--> Device Connectivity--> Boot Protocol--> Actions--> Add

4.In response to the program prompts, add the following information:

BOOTP Device Name: <specify the hostname of the MIL-4511H>

Internet address: <specify the IP address of the MIL-4511H>

Subnet address: <specify the subnet mask of the MIL-4511H>

Station address (hex): <specify the hardware address of the MIL-4511H>

Boot file name: <specify the full path of this file> (e.g.: /etc/BOOTPtab)

5.Answer the prompt for BOOTP Device Adapter Type by clicking first on Ethernet and then click on Apply.

6.Exit out of SAM.

7.Start BOOTP.

The MIL-4511H will broadcast BOOTP packets and will obtain a response from the server using the IP address specified in /etc/ BOOTPtab file.

Model: MIL-4511H
