[IGNITE] Add a Network Entry for the Client to the IP Address File on the Server - ia64

segunda-feira, 28 de novembro de 2011

1.
Collect client information. To allow a client to boot from the Ignite-UX server, you must add information about the client to the appropriate file on the Ignite-UX server. The following information is required:

->Hardware address (ha) – the client's MAC address.

->IP address (ip) – the client's assigned internet address.

For more information on adding client information to the /etc/bootptab file, see the documentation within the /etc/bootptab file and the HP-UX IP Address and Client Management Administrator's Guide: HP-UX 11i v2, HP-UX 11i v3, specifically the section on adding client or relay information. HP-UX technical documentation can be found at http://docs.hp.com.

2.
Edit the /etc/bootptab file (don't worry that it appears to be [Read-only]):

# vi /etc/bootptab

3.
Add an entry for your client. A typical bootptab file has a generic, default client specification defined, identified by tc=. In this example, ignite-defaults is that entry. If your bootptab has a different default specification, substitute it for ignite-defaults. The MAC address should be in hexadecimal, but without the leading “0x”.

The following is an example bootptab entry. For information on what each entry means, see bootpd(1M).

ignite-defaults:\
ht=ethernet:\
hn:\ dn=domain_name.com:\
gw=10.1.1.1:\
sm=255.0.0.0:\
ds=10.1.1.2 10.1.1.3:\
vm=rfc1048:\
bf=/opt/ignite/boot/nbp.efi:iuxclient1:\
tc=ignite-defaults:\
ha=0018FE2F01B3:\
ip=10.1.2.87:


4.
Save the /etc/bootptab file and exit vi:

:wq!
