You may not be able to use all methods described in this chapter to boot over some
interfaces on your router. For example, you cannot netboot over an FT1/T1
interface. In some cases, you may use one interface to boot your router and then
switch to a different interface (such as the FT1/T1 DSU/CSU) to establish your
initial IP network connection to the management workstation.
