If the Boot Device is a local area network device (boot server), the

Secondary Network Interface parameter should be cleared, which is

the default.

If the Boot Device is the hard or ﬂash disk, this parameter speciﬁes the

local area network device to be used after Freeway boots. The values

used to deﬁne your network interface device are the same as those

deﬁned for the Boot Device parameter on page 47.

Gateway Inet Interface If your Freeway and boot server are on the same network, clear this

parameter, which is the default. If they are on different networks, enter

the IP address of the gateway processor on the Freeway’s network that

provides access to the boot server’s network.
