modules.

sntpaddress address

Modifies the address of the SNTP server. If you have
a backup SNTP server, you can enter sntpaddress

address1 address2.

sntplog on|off

Enables or disables SNTP logging. The SNTP log file
is named sntp.log and is located in the root

directory of the i.LON 100 server. The time logged in
the SNTP log file is in universal coordinated time

(UTC). The maximum size of the SNTP log file is 50
Kbytes. When the file exceeds 50 Kbytes, logging is

automatically disabled. Use this command to

diagnose time synchronization problems.

subnetmask address

Modifies the subnet mask. For example,
subnetmask 255.255.255.0. This command is

valid only when DHCP is turned off.

time hh:mm:ss

Sets the time. This is not allowed if the i.LON 100

server is synched to an SNTP server.

timezone zone

Sets the time zone with the following format:

nameOfZone:timeInMinutesFromUTC:dstUsed:d
aylightStart
:daylightEnd where dstUsed is 0

or 1, and daylight savings start/end times are in the
form rank.day.month.hour. For example, 1.1.4.2

is the first Sunday in April at 02:00. Rank is a

number from 1 to 5 with 5 meaning the last instance
in the month. Days are numbered 1 to 7 starting

with Sunday. Months are numbered 1 to 12, starting

with January.

trace level [stamp]

Sets the tracing level; 0 = None; 1 = Urgent tracing

only (default); 2 = Verbose tracing (for debugging
only, not recommended). Set the optional stamp

parameter to TRUE to enable time stamping.

type file

Types the contents of file.

update bootrom [file]

Updates the bootrom of the i.LON 100 server. By
default, this command will look for the bootrom.upd

file in the /root directory of the i.LON 100 server.

Echelon highly recommends that user run this
command from the i.
LON 100 bootrom console.

See Interrupting the Boot Process, later in this
Appendix, for more information.

Interrupting the Boot Process

The i.LON 100 server undergoes an extensive boot process upon power-up and
when reset by the reset button or a reboot command issued in the Configuration

Server or console application. During the boot process, the i.LON 100 server’s

disk structure is automatically checked to ensure that any structural errors on
the disk are repaired (similar to running a check-disk command in DOS), and a

message is displayed on the screen if any corrections are made to the disk.
