Chapter 2 Installing the Remote Annex 4000

If all requests fail, the Remote Annex 4000 will return to the ROM

monitor (if in Test mode) or continue the auto-initializing procedure

indeﬁnately (if in normal mode).

BOOTP

For a successful BOOTP retrieval, a bootpd must be running on a host

on the same network as the Remote Annex 4000 and must have the

appropriate information in the bootptab file. The Remote Annex

4000’s BOOTP implementation adheres to rfc951, rfc1048, and

rfc1084. A sample bootptab file entry used to initialize the Remote

Annex 4000 named terminator looks like this:

In the previous example:

❑ sm is the subnet mask.

❑ gw is the load/dump gateway address.

❑ vm is the Vendor Magic Cookie.

❑ ht is host type (1=Ethernet).

❑ ha is the Remote Annex 4000’s hardware address (Ethernet

Address).

❑ ip is the Remote Annex 4000’s Internet Address.
