The Configure Booting IP Addresses... button gives you access to the Configure Booting IP Addresses dialog previously described in “Register the PA-RISC clients with the server” (page 34).

Add DHCP Addresses... –

The assignment of DHCP IP addresses for booting is only used for anonymous clients. See Chapter 4 (page 43) for more information.

The IP addresses you provide here are used during boot and installation. These addresses are in use for most of the Ignite-UX download to a client. One address is required for each simultaneous download. For more information see “Network booting and IP addresses” (page 19).

Figure 14 Add DHCP addresses dialog box

This provision of DHCP capability is for the boot and installation only. You will have to coordinate with the administrator of regular DHCP services, which distributes networking IP addresses, to make sure you use a set of available IP addresses that will not cause a conflict with regular DHCP services. See Appendix B (page 236) for information on configuring regular DHCP services on your Ignite-UX server. Unless you are familiar with DHCP services, do not modify the DHCP Class ID field or the DHCP Addresses are temporary check box.

Provide a range of available IP addresses in the DHCP Addresses fields from lowest number to highest:

10.2.73.2110.2.73.40

Other ways to set these IP address values are: when prompted by Ignite when it's first run are instl_adm, and SMH or SAM.

For more information about setting up DHCP functions, addresses, and class IDs, see “Ignite-UX server and boot helper setup for DHCP” (page 44), setup_server(1M), and instl_adm(4).

Configuring session options

Ignite-UX allows you to choose how client installation sessions behave. For example, you can decide whether or not to display the Welcome dialog each time you start Ignite-UX, and whether clients are halted on completion of the installation.

The following options are accessible from the Server Configuration dialog box (OptionsServer Configuration) Session Options tab.
