Initializing And Booting From A Host System - Bay Networks 5393 Hardware Installation Manual

Chapter 2 Installing the Remote Annex 5393/PRI

Initializing and Booting from a Host System

2-24 Remote Annex 5393/PRI Hardware Installation Guide
The host serving the Remote Annex its boot information must be
running on the same network as the Remote Annex because the
Remote Annex only broadcasts BOOTP and RARP queries.
If BOOTP and RARP fail, the Remote Annex transmits an IPX
Advertisement Request for Service.
If all requests fail, the Remote Annex returns to the ROM monitor (if
in Test Mode) or continues the auto-initializing procedure indefinitely
(if in Normal Mode).
You can download the image software (operational software) from a
host system or another Remote Annex 5393/PRI. The Remote Annex
is configured with default parameters at the factory, so that the first
time you boot the server, you load the Remote Annex software. To
configure the Remote Annex for your specific needs, use the ROM
monitor commands (see Chapter 3).
To load the image software on the Remote Annex, perform the
following steps:
1 To verify that the EEPROM is clear, enter the erase command at the
monitor prompt on the service port terminal.
The system displays information similar to the following:
1) EEPROM (i.e. configuration information)
2) FLASH
Enter 1 or 2::1
Erase all non-volatile EEPROM memory? (y/n) [n]::y
Erasing <16352 or 8160 bytes> of non-volatile memory.
