3.2 COMMANDS
Following is an explanation of each of the ROM monitor commands,
syntax and other usage information.
3.2.1 addr
The addr command displays and sets several
Micro-CS
operating
parameters (EEPROM values) relevant to IP network addressing:
• Internet address.
• Subnet mask.
• Broadcast address.
• Preferred Load Host address.
• Preferred Dump Host address.
• Load/Dump Gateway address.
• Type of IP Packet encapsulation.
• Load Broadcast
The addr -d command also displays the unit’s ROM-resident Ethernet
address in hexadecimal notation (see the CSMIM/MicroCS
Administrator’s Guide for UNIX). The command syntax is:
addr [–d]
If you enter the addr command without the –d argument, the console
prompts you for each Internet address. Enter Internet addresses using the
standard decimal dot (.) notation.
The addr –d command displays the Micro-CS’s Ethernet address, IP
address, subnet mask, broadcast address, preferred load host address,
preferred dump host address, load/dump gateway address, IP
encapsulation type, and Load Broadcast. The addr -d command cannot
be used to make changes to any of the displayed parameters.
