Configuring The Init.config File For The Autodesk Control Surface; Connecting The Slave Renderer To A Lustre Workstation - HP xw8600 Hardware Setup Manual

nedit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth<port#>
2 Modify the IPADDR and NETMASK values. For example:
IPADDR=192.168.125.10
NETMASK=255.255.255.0

Configuring the init.config File for the Autodesk Control Surface

After you have configured the IP address of the Control Surface, you must configure the init.config file to
use the Control Surface. For information on configuring the init.config file, see the Autodesk Software
Installation Guide for Linux Workstations or the Autodesk Software Installation Guide for Windows Workstations.

Connecting the Slave Renderer to a Lustre Workstation

The Slave Renderer is available for the Lustre Master Station, the Station, and the HD Station, all of which
must be running on a Windows-based workstation. The Slave Renderer is not available for the Linux-based
version of Lustre, since that version uses Incinerator to obtain real-time rendering and playback.
Although the Slave Renderer uses a network connection, a higher Category 6 grade cable is needed to
accommodate the data that is transmitted. For information on configuring the IP addresses of the network
ports that connect the two workstations, see the Autodesk Software Installation Guide for Windows Workstations.
To connect the Slave Renderer to a Windows-based workstation:
1 Connect the Category 6 crossover cable to the on-board network port at the back of the workstation.
2 Connect the other end of the cable to the network port 1 of the Slave Renderer machine.
The Slave Renderer should be connected as shown in the following diagram.
