Table 15. Boot Option Prompts

Prompt	Description
Device Type	The device type over which to boot the 2210; either the IBD, the
	Token-ring, or Ethernet interface.
IBD Loadname	The IBD loadname, which can include up to 79 characters, digits,
	and symbols and is case-sensitive. For initial installations, enter the
	®lename in the Release Notes (®le README.NTS that is on the
	backup software diskettes.)
Interface IP Address	The IP address of the 2210 interface over which you are booting.
IP Mask	A hexadecimal value that separates the IP network addresses from
	the other IP address ®elds. All bits that are part of the network and
	subnet should be 1.
Boot From Host	IP address of the host from which you are booting.
Via gateway	If the host from which you are booting is on another (sub)network,
	there is an intermediate router. Enter the IP address of the
	intermediate router.
Load Image Name	For initial installations, enter the load image name noted in the in
	the Release Notes (®le README.NTS that is on the backup
	software diskettes.)
Boot File Name	Full pathname of where the load image ®le resides on the host
	server. For example, /usr/local/ibm2210.ldc (UNIX example).
		Ethernet Prompts
Connector Type	Enter one of the following to specify the cable type connected to
(AUI/RJ45)	this port:
	AUI	Thick/AUI (10BASE5)
	RJ45 Unshielded Twisted Pair (10BASE-T)
	AUTOCONFIG
		Automatically senses the cable type
		Token Ring Prompts
Speed (4/16)Mb	Enter 4 or 16 to represent the token ring media transfer rate in
	Mbps (megabits per second).
	Note: The value you enter must match the speed of the ring that
	you are using.
Media (UTP/STP)	Enter one of the following to specify the cable type connected to
	this interface:
	UTP	Unshielded Twisted Pair
	STP	Shielded Twisted Pair
		WAN Prompts
WAN port	WAN port over which you are booting the 2210, either 1 or 2.
Timeout (secs)	How long, in seconds, the interface tries to boot over the network.
	The timeout must be greater than 5.
Clock Source	To connect to a:
(INT/EXT)	v Modem or DSU, enter EXT for external clocking.
	v DTE device, use a DCE cable and enter INT for internal clocking.
Internal Clock Speed	This prompt appears only if you enter INT as the Clock Source. The
	range is 1 to 10 000 000.
