Installing your IOLAN+

This allows the administrator to configure one IOLAN+, save

its configuration and automatically configure subsequent

units via bootp.

Should the configuration of your IOLAN+ ever be corrupted

because of user error or damage, it is an advantage to have

the configuration stored somewhere for easy re-installation.

This can be achieved by uploading the configuration of the

unit to a host on the network. To do this, enter the

Communications Server Menu

from the

Administration

Menu.

Select the

Init file

entry of this menu.

Set this to the full pathname of the file in which you wish to

store the configuration. Set

Boot host

to the host machine

you wish the file to reside within and save these entries.

Boot host: rockvegas (or ip address)

Init file: /tftp/term_serv.cfg

Log onto the host machine in the normal manner and create

the file you have specified in the IOLAN+ menu, this could

be as shown below:

touch term_serv.cfg

Note: This file must exist before you can write to it.

The file requires the correct read/write permissions to be

downloaded. Return to the

Connections

menu of the IOLAN+

and temporarily select the CLI interface (if you are not using it

already). This can be accomplished by hitting

and

selecting the

CLI

option in the pop up menu at the

iolan>

prompt. Use the

CLI

as the administrator, by typing:

and enter the password, now type:

save config
