UNIX TCP/IP 4-7

BootP

Emulex printer servers will accept and configure the following parameters from a TCP/IP BootP server host:

•Gateway IP address(es)

•Host IP address

•Server Domain Name

•Server IP address

•Server Loadfile Path and Name

•Server Node Name

•Server Subnet Mask

Any other BootP parameters supplied by a BootP server host will be ignored by the server code without any error indication.

1)Determine if BootP is running on the host. BSD:

> #ps -ax grep bootp

System V:

>#ps -e grep bootp

If BootP is defined for background operation, an active BootP daemon is displayed.

2)If an active BootP daemon is not listed, enter:

> #grep bootp /directory/inetd.conf

directory May be /etc/* or /usr/etc/*

If a BootP is present, it will be listed with its parameters.

3) Login to the printer server as supervisor.

It utilizes enhanced Ethernet technology to optimize network performance while reducing latency. Its support for virtualization allows for improved resource allocation, making it ideal for contemporary data center environments.

The NJ01B-NT+ complements the NQGB-NT+ with additional features aimed at improving resilience and reliability. It supports Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), which allows for the convergence of storage and data networks into a unified fabric. This not only simplifies infrastructure but also reduces overall costs and power consumption. The NJ01B-NT+ is particularly beneficial for enterprises looking to streamline their network operations while maintaining top-tier performance.

Moving on to the NQ0V-NT+, this adapter focuses on multi-protocol capabilities, enabling users to manage various network protocols within a single environment. It includes advanced features such as iSCSI offload, which enhances performance for storage area networks (SANs). Its ability to support multiple protocols makes it a versatile choice for businesses with diverse networking needs.

The NQTR0U-NATM adapter provides additional innovation by incorporating SmartNIC technology. This enables onboard processing capabilities, offloading tasks from the server CPU, which enhances overall system performance. With features that support container-based workloads and network functions virtualization (NFV), this adapter is well-suited for modern applications that require scalability and flexibility.

Finally, the NP02 module is designed with a focus on energy efficiency and high availability. It incorporates industry-leading technologies that ensure minimal downtime and optimal performance in mission-critical environments. Its advanced monitoring and management capabilities allow administrators to maintain control over their network resources, ensuring that systems run smoothly and efficiently.

Together, these Emulex network adapters deliver a comprehensive suite of features that enable businesses to optimize their network infrastructure for performance, reliability, and efficiency. With an emphasis on multi-protocol support, virtualization, and energy efficiency, Emulex products are ideal for today’s demanding data center environments. Whether for enhancing connectivity, reducing latency, or improving resource allocation, these adapters showcase Emulex's commitment to delivering high-quality networking solutions.
