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.

Continuing with Local Boot (the Quick-Start Procedure)

You can use either the ARN monitor or the Technician Interface to configure the
ARN to local boot. However, you must use the Technician Interface to run the
Quick-Start script.

To use the local boot feature:

At the command line prompt, type the following command and press the
Return key to configure the ARN to use its local config file:

bconfig config local

Note:

After connecting the ARN to the network, you can replace the

management console connection with a modem connection to enable remote
dial-in access.

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

Note:

Before starting the local boot procedure, ask your network administrator

to assist you in completing the Quick-Start worksheets in Appendix B.

Note:

Since the default setting for finding the software image is

local

;

you do

not have to change this setting for the local boot option.
