do not define a subnet mask, the CSMIM-T1 uses the generic mask for
the specified IP address.
The Remote Annex tries to boot from a preferred UNIX load host. If you
do not define a preferred load host, the CSMIM-T1 broadcasts its load
request on the subnet and loads software from the first host that responds.
If the part of the IP address containing the network address differs from
the preferred load or dump host, that host must be reached through a
gateway. The addr command prompts you for this gateway's IP address.
The CSMIM-T1 uses the broadcast address parameter when loading a
file. If this parameter contains a specific address (for example,
132.245.6.255), the CSMIM-T1 uses only that address for broadcast. If
the value is all zeroes (0.0.0.0), the ROM Monitor tries various
combinations of broadcast addresses and subnet or network broadcasts.
The CSMIM-T1 broadcasts its request three times for each possible
combination of broadcast addresses.
You can specify the IP encapsulation type as either ethernet for Ethernet,
or ieee802 for IEEE 802.2/802.3. The default IP encapsulation is
ethernet. Many systems have hardware Ethernet interfaces that are IEEE
802.3 compliant, but very few actually do 802.3 IP packet encapsulation.
Do not change this parameter unless you know absolutely that
NOTE
your Ethernet does 802.2/802.3 IP packet encapsulation. An
incorrect IP encapsulation type prevents your Remote Annex
from booting.

boot
The boot command requests the loading of appropriate CSMIM-T1
operating software from the preferred load host. The command syntax is:
boot [–lv | filename]
