Getting Started 2
Automatic Configuration with Bootp
Configuring the CAG Bootp Server Program
1 The CAG Bootp Server program is placed in the start-up group and
automatically is started during the boot process of the PC. It’s minimized
and located in the task bar.
2 Open the Bootp Server window by clicking on it in the task bar.
3 Now turn on the module with the LAN Interface and view the Bootp Server
window. After some time the Bootp Server will display the request from the
LAN Interface with the hardware (MAC) address (this information is also
stored in the file trace.txt in the bootp server directory, if Log to Disk is
enabled), see Figure 19 on page 32.
The MAC or hardware address of the LAN Interface is a world wide unique
identifier. No other network device will have the same hardware address.
The MAC address can be found on a label on the card, see Figure 6 on
page 17.
NOTE
When using this Bootp mode, the parameters are not written into the non-volatile memory
of the detector. If you delete this Bootp Configuration, the Bootp Manager will show up as
shown in Figure 16 on page 28 (Bootp mode).
If you want to store your parameters permanently on the detector (for use without the
Agilent Bootp service), refer to “Storing the Settings Permanently with Bootp Program” on
page 36.
NOTE
All examples shown in this chapter will not work in your environment. You
need your own IP-, Subnet-Mask- and Gateway addresses.
NOTE
Assure that the LAN Interface configuration switch is set properly. The setting
should be either Bootp or Bootp & Store, see Table 5 on page 22.
NOTE
Assure that the instrument with the LAN Interface installed and connected to the PC is
powered off.
NOTE
If the CAG Bootp Server program is not already installed on your PC, then install it from your
Agilent ChemStation CD-ROM, located in folder \Bootp.
