Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Where to Go Next Use the following table to determine where you want to go next.
Chapter 2 Starting the ARN This chapter describes how to start the Passport ARN router, as follows: Topic Go to Understanding the startup process 2-1 Starting the ARN for the first time 2-4 Using EZ-Install 2-5 Using Netboot, Directed Netboot, or Local Boot 2-6 Where to go next 2-15 Understanding the Startup Process To operate, the ARN requires two files: a software image and a configuration file. Each time you start the ARN, it completes a process to load these files.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers When you start the ARN for the first time, it completes an initial startup procedure to boot and connect to the network using either a default configuration file or one already customized and available on the network. You use one of four boot options to complete the initial software startup. Table 2-1 summarizes the four options; the sections that follow provide steps for completing each option. Table 2-1.
Starting the ARN You may not be able to use all methods described in this chapter to boot over some interfaces on your router. For example, you cannot netboot over an FT1/T1 interface. In some cases, you may use one interface to boot your router and then switch to a different interface (such as the FT1/T1 DSU/CSU) to establish your initial IP network connection to the management workstation. Table 2-2 lists supported boot options by interface type. Table 2-2.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Starting the ARN for the First Time The ARN factory defaults are set to find the image file and configuration file from the following locations: • Image file -- on the local PCMCIA flash memory card • Configuration file -- over the network These default settings work with the default EZ-Install procedure.
Starting the ARN Using EZ-Install EZ-Install is the default installation option provided by Nortel Networks. This option requires that your network administrator has set up the network so that you can start the EZ-Install procedure. In addition, this option requires that you: • Install a flash memory card. For instructions, see “Installing the Flash Memory Card” on page 1-31. • Connect at least one serial (COM) interface to the network.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Using Netboot, Directed Netboot, or Local Boot When you netboot or local boot the ARN, you must use a command line interface that accesses the router software. To use a command line interface, you can: • Wait for the ARN to local boot (that is, wait for the router to fail EZ-Install and then attempt to boot using its local configuration file). After the ARN boots locally, you can log in to the Technician Interface and redefine the boot process.
Starting the ARN 2. While the router is running the EZ-Install procedure, issue a break sequence from the management console. The ARN monitor login prompt appears. Note: Be sure to issue a break sequence before the boot process completes. Break sequences can vary, depending on the console type. Some management consoles have specific “Break” keys on their keyboards; other require a key sequence to issue a break (for example, Cntrl-C or ~ #).
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Continuing with Netboot Note: Continuing with the netboot option requires that you have already logged in to either the ARN monitor or Technician Interface command line software. For instructions, see “Logging in to the Command Line Software” on page 2-7. To use the netboot option, you must have at least one serial, Ethernet, or token ring interface connected to the network.
Starting the ARN The getcfg command shows the source location, either local or network, of the boot image file and the network configuration file. It also shows the interface configuration settings that you specified using the ifconfig command. If getcfg displays the correct information, continue to the next step. Otherwise, reenter the correct ifconfig command. If you need assistance, contact your network administrator. 3.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Continuing with Directed Netboot Note: Continuing with the netboot option requires that you have already logged in to either the ARN monitor or Technician Interface command line software. For instructions, see “Logging in to the Command Line Software” on page 2-7. You must have at least one serial, 56/64K DSU/CSU, Ethernet, or token ring interface connected to the network to use the directed netboot option.
Starting the ARN To use the directed netboot feature: 1. At the command line prompt, enter the ifconfig command provided to you by your network administrator and press the Return key. The following is a sample command: ifconfig com1 9.0.0.2 255.0.0.0 9.0.0.3 For more information about the ifconfig command, see “Using the ifconfig Command” on page A-2. 2. Enter the bconfig commands provided by your network administrator and press the Return key.

Starting the ARN 6. Ensure that the ARN is successfully connected to your network. To verify that the ARN is now connected to the network, contact your network administrator. To troubleshoot any problems, your network administrator can refer to Configuring Passport Remote Access. If you need additional assistance, contact your local Nortel Networks Technical Solutions Center.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers 2. Type the following command and press the Return key to boot the ARN: boot Note: If the ARN tries to local boot and cannot find a software image file or a configuration file, it attempts to netboot once. If both attempts fail, the ARN continues to local boot and netboot until it boots successfully. If the ARN remains in this loop, follow the steps in “Interrupting the Boot Process” on page 2-6. 3. Ensure that the ARN boots correctly.
Starting the ARN Entering n stops the Quick-Start script and returns you to the Technician interface prompt. Entering y allows you to configure another module/port. When the install script completes, the ARN starts bridging and routing traffic. 8. Ensure that the ARN is successfully connected to your network. To verify that the ARN is now connected to the network, contact your network administrator. To troubleshoot any problems, your network administrator can refer to Configuring Passport Remote Access.

Appendix A Configuring the ARN for Netboot and Directed Netboot This appendix describes how to configure the Passport ARN router for Netboot and Directed Netboot, as follows: Topic Page Using the ifconfig command A-2 Using the bconfig command A-7 Verifying your configuration A-8 The ifconfig and bconfig commands configure the ARN for netboot and directed netboot. • Use the ifconfig command to configure the router initial IP interface to the network.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Using the ifconfig Command A router interface cannot communicate in an IP network without an IP address. Because an ARN netboots over one of its serial, 56/64K DSU/CSU, Ethernet, or token ring links, the netboot interface must have a valid IP address. You use the interface configuration command ifconfig to do the following: • Configure the router’s initial IP interface to the network.
Configuring the ARN for Netboot and Directed Netboot Table A-1 describes the ifconfig command settings for configuring a COM interface. Table A-1. Setting COM Interface ifconfig Command Settings Description Default Setting -d Resets the router IP interface settings to the default values. This setting tries four WAN configurations in the following order until it finds the correct type for the router connection to the network: 1.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Table A-1. COM Interface ifconfig Command Settings (continued) Setting Description Specifies the IP subnet mask of the interface you set with . Provide this address in dotted decimal notation. Specifies the IP address of the next-hop router. Provide this address in dotted decimal notation. Specify this address only if there are intermediate routers between the router and the BootP server.
Configuring the ARN for Netboot and Directed Netboot Configuring a Token Ring Interface for Network Booting To configure an ARN token ring interface for network booting, use the following command format: ifconfig [-d] [ -r ] [ []] Table A-3 describes the ifconfig command settings for configuring the router token ring interface. Table A-3.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Enabling and Disabling Interfaces with ifconfig To enable or disable an ARN interface for the network boot process, use the following command formats: ifconfig -disable ifconfig -enable Table A-4 describes the ifconfig command settings for enabling and disabling interfaces for network booting. Table A-4.
Configuring the ARN for Netboot and Directed Netboot Using the bconfig Command You use the bconfig command to configure the boot option. • To use netboot, you use the boot configuration command bconfig to specify that the ARN software image file or configuration file resides on the network. • To use directed netboot, you use the bconfig command to specify the IP address of the server and the full pathname to the software image and configuration file.
Installing and Operating Passport ARN Routers Examples of bconfig Commands 1. Configure the default netboot procedure. Use a local image file and look for the configuration file over the network using BootP. bconfig -d image (or bconfig image local) bconfig -d config (or bconfig config network) 2. Use netboot for both the image file and the configuration file. bconfig image network bconfig config network 3. Use a local configuration file and use directed netboot for the software image file.
