DESCRIPTION
There are several tasks which need to be performed to administer an Ignite-UX server. The
setup_server tool handles many of these tasks, and is is designed to provide a very simple interface.
It has a command-line interface only with no interactive capabilities. The GUI in ignite(5) provides the
same functionality interactively.
In general, the options are independent from one another. If an error is encountered while processing one
option, any other options are generally processed. Also, options should only be specified once during a
given inv ocation (the last specification is the one used).
Options
setup_server recognizes the following options:
−c class_id Sets the DHCP class_id which will be used to filter DHCP lease requests. This
allows the DHCP server to respond only to Ignite-UX clients.
−g gateway_ip_address
Only valid when the -I option is also specified. This option lets you specify
which gateway address should appear in the DHCP entry being created using
the -I option. The default gateway will be the entry found in the
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf ROUTE_GATEWAY entry.
−h true| false Modify the configuration file in the RAM FS specifying that all newly installed
clients should halt when complete. The default is false, indicating the client
will reboot.
−i ip_address|"ip_address_1-ip_address_n"|"ip_address":"MAC_address"
Sets up one or more temporary IP addresses for booting during the network
installation process. Each simultaneous installation session requires its own IP
address. Note that the IP addresses here are only used briefly (three (3) min-
utes). The addresses are recorded in the /etc/instl_boottab file. If
only the IP (or a range of IPs) is specified, any install client may use the IP dur-
ing the installation process. If you wish to assign an IP to a particular client,
you may also include the client’s MAC address (the MAC address must be
specified as a hex number without a leading 0x). If this information is included,
only the client you specify may use the IP. The IP addresses used during the
majority of the installation are specified using the -I option.
−I ip_address|ip_address_1-ip_address_n
Sets up one or more temporary IP addresses for the remainder of the network
installation process. Each simultaneous installation session requires its own IP
address allocated using DHCP. It is preferable to allocate one (or more)
range(s) rather than individual IP addresses.
−l lan_interface
Only valid when the −I option is also specified. This option is used to specify
which lan interface should be used when setting the DHCP entry for this range
of addresses. By default, the interface specified by INTERFACE[0] in the
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf file is used. Examples of interfaces are
LAN0 and LAN1.
