Configuring the Netboot Interface
A router interface cannot communicate in an IP network without an IP address.
Because an AN/ANH/ARN netboots over one of its synchronous, Ethernet, or
Token Ring (ARN only) links, the Netboot interface must have a valid IP address.
You have two options for assigning an IP address to an interface:
• Use the Technician Interface
ifconfig command to manually configure a
synchronous, Ethernet, or Token Ring interface for Netboot or Directed
Netboot.
• Configure the upstream router to support automated addressing for EZ-Install.
Chapter 4 describes how to configure the upstream router to support
EZ-Install by creating the BOOTP client interface table. “The Boot Process”
section in Chapter 1 describes how the router automatically obtains an IP
address during the EZ-Install process.
The following sections describe each use of the
ifconfig command.
Configuring an IP Synchronous Interface for Network Booting
Configure a synchronous interface to the IP network using the following interface
configuration command:
ifconfig [
synchronous options
]
<interface>
[
<IP address> <subnet mask>
[
<next
hop address>
]]
The synchronous options variable indicates some combination of the following
settings:
[
-d | -fr [-annexd | -lmi | -annexa] | -int_clk]
T
able 5-2 describes the ifconfig command arguments for configuring an
AN/ANH/ARN synchronous interface.
Note: Insert a space to separate each command option from the next.
