Installing to and Loading from a UNIX Host
This section contains a description of what you need to do to install
the Remote Annex 4000’s operational software and image to a UNIX
host (see the Remote Annex Administrator’s Guide for UNIX for
additional information). Proceed as follows:
1 Install the image on a UNIX host. The software installation notes
describe how to do that.
If you have a BOOTP server, boot the Remote
Annex 4000. Otherwise, continue to the next step.
2 Execute the ROM Monitor addr command:
❑ Enter the Remote Annex 4000’s Internet address.
❑ Modify any other parameters that the Remote Annex
4000 may require for the initial boot, i.e., the preferred
load host’s Internet address and the subnet mask (see
addr on page 3-5).
3 If you are booting the Remote Annex 4000 using a Serial Line Internet
Protocol (SLIP) network interface, you must:
❑ Use the ROM Monitor slip command to modify the port
parameters for the SLIP network interface (see slip on
page 3-31).
❑ Use the ROM Monitor sequence command to list the
SLIP network interface in the load/dump interface list
(see sequence on page 3-29).
4 Execute the boot command (see boot on page 3-8).
After successful execution of the boot command, the Remote
Annex 4000 is up and running.
