SCRIPT

FUNCTION:

Provides very basic scripting capability

SYNTAX:

script [<newscript>]

where:

script

command

<newscript>

parameter: string
string may only include simple commands; flow
control constructs are not permitted; commands
must be separated by semi-colons

DESCRIPTION:

With the "script" command, it is possible to control the boot process.
During booting, if a valid script is available, the NetBootLoader will
process it once the boot wait time is expired.
If this command is issued without any parameters, the currently
active script contents are displayed.

USAGE:

Download a boot image from a tftp server and run the boot image.

COMMAND / RESPONSE (none):

script dhcp; tftp; run

Upon the next reset or cold start, after the boot wait time has expired
the commands "dhcp", "tftp", and "run" will be executed in that order.
This command sequence configures the Ethernet port FCC1 (FE),
downloads the specified bootable image from an tftp server, and then
starts this image.
