Ignite-UX Administration Guide for HP-UX 11i (B3921-90079, October 2013)

• The Configure Booting IP Addresses... button gives you access to the Configure Booting IP
Addresses dialog previously described in “Register the PA-RISC Clients with the Server”
(page 33).
• Add DHCP Addresses... –
The assignment of DHCP IP addresses for booting is only used for anonymous clients. See
Chapter 4 (page 42) for more information.
The IP addresses you provide here are used during boot and installation. These addresses are
in use for most of the Ignite-UX download to a client. One address is required for each
simultaneous download. For more information see “Network Booting and IP Addresses”
(page 18).
Figure 14 Add DHCP Addresses Dialog Box
This provision of DHCP capability is for the boot and installation only. You will have to
coordinate with the administrator of regular DHCP services, which distributes networking IP
addresses, to make sure you use a set of available IP addresses that will not cause a conflict
with regular DHCP services. See Appendix B (page 232) for information on configuring regular
DHCP services on your Ignite-UX server. Unless you are familiar with DHCP services, do not
modify the DHCP Class ID field or the DHCP Addresses are temporary check box.
Provide a range of available IP addresses in the DHCP Addresses fields from lowest number
to highest:
10.2.73.21 10.2.73.40
Other ways to set these IP address values are: when prompted by Ignite when it's first run are
instl_adm, and SMH or SAM.
For more information about setting up DHCP functions, addresses, and class IDs, see “Ignite-UX
Server and Boot Helper Setup for DHCP” (page 43), setup_server(1M), and instl_adm(4).
Configuring Session Options
Ignite-UX allows you to choose how client installation sessions behave. For example, you can
decide whether or not to display the Welcome dialog each time you start Ignite-UX, and whether
clients are halted on completion of the installation.
The following options are accessible from the Server Configuration dialog box (Options→Server
Configuration) Session Options tab.
