Using the Installation Script
to Quick-Start a Router
The install.bat script establishes an initial IP network interface on the router so
that your router can communicate with the workstation from which you will
manage the router.
The script prompts you to enter the network information that dynamically
configures the initial IP interface. (See Appendix A
for a sample script execution.)
You configure subsequent interfaces with Site Manager, the BCC, or another
router configuration tool.
Following are important points to remember about running the script:
• You must boot the router with the ti.cfg file before running the script.
• Do not overwrite the ti.cfg file.
• Save your initial configuration file as startup.cfg.
• After the script completes successfully, do not reboot your router.
• If the script fails, see “
Quick-Start Troubleshooting” on page 4-4.
• If you must rerun the script, first reboot the router with the ti.cfg file.
• Immediately after running the script, secure your router. For more
information, see Chapter 7, “
Securing the Router.”
Note:
You can use either the BCC or the install.bat script to establish an initial
IP interface. For information about using the BCC, see Chapter 5, “
Using the
BCC to Quick-Start a Router.”
