B.1.2 Linux - BootP Server Configuration
See the following sections for information on these BootP server configurations in the Linux
environment:
• BootP Options
• BootP Priorities
B.1.2.1 BootP Options
This section contains instructions for the automatic update of the access point firmware and
configuration file using a BootP Server.
The setup example described in this section includes:
• 1 AP-5131 or AP-5181 model access point
• 1 Linux/Unix BOOTP Server
• 1 TFTP Server.
Please note the following caveats regarding this procedure before beginning:
• The LAN Port needs to be configured as a BootP client.
• No BootP support is available on the WAN Port.
• If the existing and update firmware files are the same, the firmware will not get updated.
To configure BootP options using a Linux/Unix BootP Server:
1. Set the Linux/Unix BootP Server and access point on the same Ethernet segment.
2. Configure the bootptab file (/etc/bootptab) on the Linux/Unix BootP Server in any one of the
formats that follows:
Using options 186, 187 and 188:
AP-5131:ha=00a0f88aa6d8\ < LAN MAC Address>
:sm =255.255.255.0\ <Subnet Mask>
:ip=157.235.93.128\ <IP Address>
:gw=157.235.93.2\ <gateway>
:T186=”157.235.93.250”\ <TFTP Server IP>
:T187="apfw .bin"\ <Firmware file>
:T188="cfg.txt": <Configuration file>
