The command arguments determine which configuration entries are to be
displayed.
RCA SystemName
All configuration entries belonging to the specified RCA are displayed.
RCA PortNumber
If a configuration entry is found for the specified TCP/IP port number –
admin

The configuration entry belonging to the specified symbolic system name
is output.

5.4.2.3
Configuring the RCA
To be configured successfully, the RCA (RCA4) must be known and also acces-
sible in the LAN, and all serial console connections (V.24 lines) from the RCA to
the required RM or PRIMEPOWER (MR) servers must be implemented.
Since the RCA does not have a keyboard or display of its own, it is configured
from the LAN Console. The RCA is made known for this purpose using the
arp
command, which means that it can be addressed after its initial boot, i.e. after
being powered on, from the LAN Console.
