The following environmental variables should be kept at their default values
unless directed otherwise by Alcatel support:
servername This is the hostname of the Alcatel Wireless LAN Switch (or
TFTP server) that holds the AP software image and/or
configuration files.
When using this variable, your DNS server must be
configured to resolve the specified hostname to the
appropriate location. The default value is Alcatel-master.
If not using DNS, use the master and serverip variables
instead.
The servername variable overrides the value of serverip (for
both software and configuration) and is overridden by the
master variable (for configuration only) if configured.
serverip This is the IP address of the Alcatel Wireless LAN Switch (or
TFTP server) where the AP software and/or configuration
files are stored. This variable is usually set when DNS is not
used.
The serverip variable is overridden by the servername variable
(for both software and configuration) and the master variable
(for configuration only) if configured.
ipaddr This is the IP address of the AP, specified in dotted decimal
notation. If specified, the AP uses this address instead of
obtaining one using DHCP.
netmask This is the IP address mask of the AP. This is used in
conjunction with the ipaddr variable to define the subnet of
the AP.
gatewayip This is the IP address of the default gateway for the IP. This
is used in conjunction with ipaddr when using static
addresses instead of DHCP.
