Boot mode setting. This setting selects which method will be used to
define the Management Card’s TCP/IP settings whenever the Management
Card turns on, resets, or restarts:
• Manual: Three settings (System IP, Subnet Mask, and Default
Gateway) which are only available when Manual is used to define the
needed TCP/IP settings.
• BOOTP only: A BOOTP server provides the TCP/IP settings.
• DHCP only: A DHCP server provides the TCP/IP settings.
• DHCP & BOOTP: The Management Card will attempt to get its TCP/IP
settings from a BOOTP server first, and then, if it cannot discover a
BOOTP server, from a DHCP server.
An After IP Assignment setting, by default, will switch Boot
mode from its default DHCP & BOOTP setting to BOOTP
only or DHCP only, depending on the type of server that
supplied the TCP/IP settings to the Management Card. For
information about the After IP Assignment setting, and
other settings that affect how the Management Card uses
BOOTP and DHCP, see Advanced settings; For more
information about how to use DHCP, see Boot Mode; for
more information about how to use BOOTP, see the
Management Card Addendum (./doc/addendum.pdf)
provided on the APC Network Management Card utility CD.
