Network Auto Boot at power-up 
only [Y/N]

Y

Network Auto Boot is attempted at power-up 
reset only. 

Network Auto Boot Controller 
LUN

00

Specifies LUN of a disk/tape controller module 
currently supported by the Bug. Default is $0. 

Network Auto Boot Device LUN

00

Specifies LUN of a disk/tape device currently 
supported by the Bug. Default is $0. 

Network Auto Boot Abort Delay

5

The time in seconds that the Network Boot 
sequence will delay before starting the boot. 
The delay gives you the option of stopping the 
boot by use of the Break key. The time span is 
0-255 seconds. 

Network Autoboot Configuration 
Parameters Pointer (NVRAM)

00000000

The address where the network interface 
configuration parameters are to be saved in 
NVRAM; these are the parameters necessary 
to perform an unattended network boot.

Memory Search Starting Address

00000000

Where the Bug begins to search for a work 
page (a 64KB block of memory) to use for 
vector table, stack, and variables. This must be 
a multiple of the debugger work page, modulo 
$10000 (64KB). In a multi-controller 
environment, each MVME177P board could be 
set to start its work page at a unique address to 
allow multiple debuggers to operate 
simultaneously. 

Memory Search Ending Address

00100000

Top limit of the Bug’s search for a work page. 
If no 64KB contiguous block of memory is 
found in the range specified by Memory 
Search Starting Address and Memory Search 
Ending Address parameters, the bug will place 
its work page in the onboard static RAM on the 
MVME177P. Default Memory Search Ending 
Address is the calculated size of local memory.
