PRIMESTATION as LAN Console
A client for the BOOTP service is entered on the LAN Console with the
add_RM_client tool.
Options:
-i IP_ADDR
The IP address of the RM client that is going to be entered for remote
installation. This is specified in the usual Internet format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
(decimal numbers separated by ".").
-e ETHER_ADDR
The Ethernet address (hardware/ MAC address of the LAN board
connecting the RM to the Ethernet) of the RM client that is going to be
entered for remote installation. This is specified in the standard format:
x:x:x:x:x:x (hexadecimal numbers between 0 and ff separated by ":").
-g GATEWAY_ADDR
The IP address of the gateway to the subnet in which the RM client is
located. This parameter must be specified if the RM client is not in the
same subnet as the Solaris computer. It can be omitted if the two
systems are in the same subnet. This is specified in the usual Internet
format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (decimal numbers separated by ".").
-s SUBNETMASK
The network mask of the subnet in which the RM client is located. This
is specified in the usual Internet format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (decimal
numbers separated by ".").
-m MACRO
Macro name which is entered in the /var/dhcp/dhcptab file (this macro is
referred to as the install macro from now on). The name can be freely
chosen. A separate name can be chosen for each client, but it is also
possible to use the same macro name for several clients. In this way,
various RM clients can be assigned to an installation class.
This macro contains data that is the same for all assigned computers
(e.g. the boot file or the pointer to the associated network table). Different
network tables apply to computers that are in different subnets so
different macros have to be defined for them.
It is advisable, for instance, to give it the same name as the VERSION
from the setup_RM_server call. In this way, all RM clients which are to be
installed with this version and are located in the same subnet get the
same macro and thus the same values from /var/dhcp/dhcptab.
