Appendix A
Configuring the ARN for Netboot and
Directed Netboot
This appendix describes how to configure the Passport ARN router for Netboot
and Directed Netboot, as follows:
The ifconfig and bconfig commands configure the ARN for netboot and directed
netboot.
• Use the i fconfig command to configure the router initial IP interface to the
network. You need this information to complete the procedure in “Continuing
with Netboot” on page 2-8.
• Use the bconfig command to specify the location and name of the ARN
software image file and the configuration file. You need this information to
complete the procedure in “Continuing with Directed Netboot” on page 2-10.
To determine the appropriate ifconfig command and bconfig commands for the
ARN at your site, contact your network administrator. (Your network
administrator has information on these commands in Configuring Passport
Remote Access.)
