Configuring Remote Access for AN and Passport ARN Routers1-20 308614-14.20 Rev 00NetbootComplete the following steps for the Netboot option:1. Use the Configuration Manager in local mode to create a completeconfiguration file for the AN/ANH or ARN router. (See Chapter 3 andConfiguring and Managing Routers with Site Manager.)2. Set up a UNIX workstation on the network to support BootP. (See Chapter 2.)3. Use Site Manager to enable BootP on each router interface between the routerand the BootP server. (See Chapter 3.)4. Ensure that there is a network connection from a synchronous, Ethernet, ortoken ring (ARN only) interface on the AN/ANH or ARN router to theupstream router.5. Install the kernel and application files in the BootP server’s file system, andmake sure that they reside in the same directory. (See Chapter 2.)6. The person at the AN/ANH or ARN router site establishes a TechnicianInterface session, or you establish a session using a modem. (See the hardwareinstallation guide.)7. The person at the AN/ANH or ARN router console uses the bconfig andifconfig commands to configure a synchronous, Ethernet, or token ring (ARNonly) interface. (See Chapter 4 and the hardware installation guide.)8. The person at the AN/ANH or ARN router site boots the router. (See thehardware installation guide.)After the AN/ANH or ARN router boots, it obtains at least one startup filefrom the BootP server. If the configuration file meets your networkrequirements, the router starts bridging and routing traffic.9. Use the Site Manager Statistics Manager and Events Manager tools to verifythat the AN/ANH or ARN router is routing traffic as specified in theconfiguration file. (See Configuring and Managing Routers with SiteManager.)Note: If the AN/ANH or ARN router will connect to the upstream router overa frame relay circuit, ensure that the upstream router is running BayRS Version7.71 or later.
