Setup File Format
A line in a setup file contains all or some of the above fields separated by
spaces (in the following order):
<MAC-Address> <New-IP-Address> <New-IP-Mask> <Configuration-
File-Name> <Image-File-Name> <flag>
If the <flag> field is omitted, it is considered to be blank.
A line can be in one of the following formats:
• Format A—Contains all possible fields:
<MAC_address (of device)> <New_IP_Address> <New_IP_Mask>
<Configuration-File-Name> <Image-File-Name> <flag>
Examples:
– 0080.c200.0010 192.168.0.10 255.255.255.0 switch-X.text pc5500-
4018.ros
This means that the line applies to the device with MAC address:
0080.c200.0010; a new IP address of 192.168.0.10 is to be assigned to
the device, with mask: 255.255.255.0. The switch-x.text is the Startup
Configuration file and pc5500-4018.ros is the new image file.
– 0080.c200.0010 192.168.0.10 255.255.255.0 switch-X.text pc5500-
4018.ros in-use
This line will not be used because the flag is in-use indicating that it
has already been used for some device, and it would be incorrect to use
if for another device.
– 0080.c200.0010 192.168.0.10 255.255.255.0 switch-X.text pc5500-
4018.ros invalid
This line will not be used because the flag is invalid indicating that it
is failed in the past.
