Preparing Configuration and Image Files
AN/ANH and ARN routers ship with a flash memory card that contains a default
(generic) configuration file and the
an.exe
or
arn.exe
router software image. For
the AN/ANH and ARN routers in your network, you must create:
•
A unique configuration file for each netbooting router
•
A uniform software image for all netbooting routers
Creating Configuration Files
To prepare network configuration files:
1.
Use the Configuration Manager in local mode to create a configuration
file for each router.
For instructions, see
Configuring and Managing Routers with Site Manager
.
Also, see the following:
•
Table 3-1
for the Site Manager module name to use when creating a
configuration file for AN routers
•
Tables
3-2
through
3-4
for the module names to use when creating a
configuration file for ARN routers.
Site Manager identifies AN and ANH routers with module names that use
mnemonic abbreviations for each of the router’s connectors. For example, the
module name E/T/2S identifies an AN with one Ethernet, one token ring, and two
serial interfaces. The module name 8ptEHub/3S/N11 DCM identifies an 8-port
ANH with a third serial interface and an RMON data collection module (DCM)
installed.
Note:
For ARN routers, you choose base, expansion, and adapter modules
separately.
