Appendix C – Using DiscView from DOS
For versions prior to 3.30a, the discport_address is just
the last six digits of the address; for this example,
402B06 instead of discport_402B06.
The image filename is the same as the DP*.IMG file that
you copied to the \login directory. The name of the image
file is logical — DPE510A.IMG — DPE for Ethernet, or
DPT for Token Ring, the version of the software, for ex-
ample, 510A, and the .IMG extension.
If you enter the command dp discport list at this point, the
boot server and image file reflect your changes (see below).
These changes will not be permanent until you enter the re-
set command below.
3. Command: dp host reset <server> <host_name>
Example: dp host reset support discport_402B06
This command will store the new configuration parameters in
the DiscPort. It may be necessary to wait up to two minutes
for the DiscPort to reset. In addition to storing the configura-
tion, the reset command will force the DiscPort to download
the boot file.
For versions prior to 3.30a, the command is:
dp discport reset <server> <discport_address>
Example: dp discport reset support 402B06
