The Network Boot Process

This section describes the boot process for the network boot options. For

information on the Local Boot procedure, see Quick-Starting Routers.

The following occurs when the ASN boots over the network via EZ-Install,

Netboot, or Directed Netboot:

The ASN boots a software image that resides on a local file system flash

card (

asn.exe

The local software image configures the ASN’s network interfaces to use

IP.

The router determines its IP address.

The router obtains a software image file and/or configuration file by

communicating with a configured BOOTP server on the IP network.

The router reboots, using the newly transferred image.

The router begins bridging and routing network traffic in accordance

with the configuration file.

The following sections describe key steps in the process -- obtaining an IP address

and downloading the image and configuration files -- in greater detail.

Getting an IP Address

The ASN gets its IP address from a central-point upstream router.

Obtaining the IP Address Manually (Netboot and Directed Netboot)

For Netboot and Directed Netboot, you configure the ASN’s IP address manually.

Chapter 3 describes how to use Site Manager to configure Netboot interfaces.

Chapter 4 describes how to configure the IP address using the Technician

Interface.

Note:

The upstream router has either a circuit running Nortel Networks

Standard protocol or a Frame Relay permanent virtual circuit (PVC) in direct

or group access mode.
