Verifying Your Configuration | Nortel Networks 114200-E guide

Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers

Examples of bconfig Commands

1.Configure the default netboot procedure. Use a local image file and look for the configuration file over the network using BootP.

bconfig -d image (or bconfig image local) bconfig -d config (or bconfig config network)

2.Use netboot for both the image file and the configuration file.

bconfig image network bconfig config network

3.Use a local configuration file and use directed netboot for the software image file.

bconfig image network 21.3.5.62 /usr/mykernel.exe bconfig config local

4.Use a local software image file and use directed netboot for the configuration file.

bconfig image local

bconfig config network 21.3.5.62 /usr/arnstartup/config

5.Use directed netboot for both the software image file and the configuration file.

bconfig image network 21.3.5.62 /usr/mykernel.exe bconfig config network 21.3.5.62 /usr/arnstartup/config

Verifying Your Configuration

You can use the get configuration command getcfg to verify:

•Whether the router is set to boot using a local or remote software image

•Whether the router is set to configure using a local or remote configuration file

•The configuration of any serial, DSU/CSU, Ethernet, and token ring connectors

To display the ARN startup options, enter the following command:

getcfg
