Configuring for Remote Boot
Setting Up a Novell NetWare 3.x and 4.x Server for Remote Start
84
English
The BOOTCONF.SYS bind parameters are as follows:
ACK
Use this parameter if you wish to configure the RPL module to
ACKnowledge FILE.DATA.RESPONSE frames sent by RPL.NLM.
RPL.NLM will send FILE.DATA.RESPONSE frames in a burst mode
by default. This parameter allows pacing by the workstation if the
HP Ethernet Family Adapter cannot keep up with RPL.NLM.
FRAME=ff
Use this parameter if you wish to configure the bootstrap program
(RBOOT.RPL) to use a frame type other than the default to access
the file server.
Valid frame types are:
FRAME=802.2. Default
FRAME=EII.
ETHERNET_II protocol. (Only use on
ETHERNET networks.)
FRAME=SNAP. SNAP protocol.
If FRAME=EII or FRAME=SNAP is selected, RPL.NLM forces the
bootstrap program to do a “Get Nearest Server” (GNS).
GNS
This parameter specifies that you wish the workstation to do a Get
Nearest Server request when the appropriate bootstrap program is
downloaded.
Normally, RPL.NLM will supply the bootstrap program with the file
server information so that it does not need to do a Get Nearest
Server request. Using the GNS parameter may cause the
workstation to find a server other than one where RPL.NLM is
located.
NOACK
This parameter will override the ACK parameter specified in the
BIND command (
refer to page 87
).
NOGNS
This parameter will override the GNS parameter specified in the
BIND command (
refer to page 87
).
