Nortel Networks TP-1610 SIP user manual Using Command Line Switches

Mediant 2000 SIP

•Call Agent: This field specifies the IP address of the MGCP Call Agent that is controlling the gateway. This field can be ignored for all other control/signaling protocols.

B.11.6 Using Command Line Switches

You can add command line switches in the field Boot File.

To use a Command Line Switch, take these 4 steps:

1.In the field Boot File, leave the file name defined in the field as it is (e.g., ramxxx.cmp).

2.Place your cursor after cmp

3.Press the space bar

4.Type in the switch you require.

Example: “ramxxx.cmp -fb” to burn flash memory.

“ramxxx.cmp -fb -em 4” to burn flash memory and for Ethernet Mode 4 (auto-negotiate).

Table B-1lists and describes the switches that are available:

			Table B-1: Command Line Switch Descriptions
Switch				Description
-fb	Burn ram.cmp in flash (only for cmp files)
-em #	Use this switch to set Ethernet mode.
	0	=	10 Base-T half-duplex
	1	=	10 Base-T full-duplex
	2	=	100 Base-TX half-duplex
	3	=	100 Base-TX full-duplex
	4	= auto-negotiate (default)
	Auto-negotiate falls back to half-duplex mode when the opposite port is not in auto-negotiate but the speed
	(10		Base-T or 100 Base-TX) in this mode is always configured correctly.
-br	BootP retries. Sets the number of BootP requests the device sends during start-up. The device stops
	sending BootP requests when either BootP reply is received or Number of Retries is reached. This switch
	takes effect only from the next device reset.
	1	=	1 BootP retry, 1 second
	2	=	2 BootP retries, 3 seconds
	3	=	3 BootP retries, 6 seconds
	4	=	10 BootP retries, 30 seconds
	5	=	20 BootP retries, 60 seconds
	6	=	40 BootP retries, 120 seconds
	7	=	100 BootP retries, 300 seconds
	15 = BootP retries indefinitely
-bd	BootP delays. Sets the interval between the device’s start-up and the first BootP/DHCP request that is
	issued by the device. The switch only takes effect from the next reset of the device.
	1	=	1 second delay (default).
	2	=	10 second delay.
	3	=	30 second delay.
	4	=	60 second delay.
	5	=	120 second delay.
-bs	Use –bs 1 to enable the Selective BootP mechanism.
	Use –bs 0 to disable the Selective BootP mechanism.
	The Selective BootP mechanism enables the gateway’s integral BootP client to filter unsolicited
	BootP/DHCP replies (accepts only BootP replies that contain the text “AUDC" in the vendor specific
	information field). This option is useful in environments where enterprise BootP/DHCP servers provide
	undesired responses to the gateway’s BootP requests.
-be	Use -be 1 for the device to send device-related initial startup information (such as board type, current IP
	address, software version, etc.) in the vendor specific information field (in the BootP request). This
	information can be viewed in the main screen of the BootP/TFTP, under column 'Client Info‘ (refer to
	Figure B-1showing BootP/TFTP main screen with the column 'Client Info' on the extreme right). For a full
	list of the vendor specific Information fields, refer to Section 10.3 on page 169.
	Note: This option is not available on DHCP servers.
