fifteen minutes:
command: boot +1:15
annex list (return for default): thirdfloor, 132.245.6.40
filename (return for default): <cr>
warning: Shutting down for PM
The RA 6300 can request its boot file from a defined preferred load host.
If that host is not defined, or does not respond, the RA 6300 broadcasts
its request and boots from the first load host to respond.

broadcast

The broadcast command sends a message to modem users on specified
internal asynchronous ports at the identified Remote Annex 6300s. The
syntax is:
broadcast [=async_port_set | =keyword [@annex_identifier]] message
The async_port_set argument indicates the numbers of the internal
asynchronous port(s) to which the message is to be broadcast. For
example, a port set of 1, 2, 3 specifies internal ports asy1, asy2, and asy3.
If the message requires more than one line, using the \ character at the
end of each line inserts a new line.
