Configuring Remote Access for AN and Passport ARN Routers

After you open the image file, the Image Builder automatically extracts the
kernel image file, application files, and string files.
Keep the following in mind:
•
Be sure to choose the correct image (
an.exe
for an AN/ANH
,
or
arn.exe
for an ARN). If you choose an image for another router type, you cannot
generate the correct files.
•
The kernel file and all of the application (
.exe
) files and string (
.str
) files
must be from the same software image file. If these files are from different
software versions, the router may fail to boot or may not operate properly.
2.
If you use a different workstation as a BootP server, transfer to that
workstation all of the files in the directory that contains the kernel file.
The router cannot netboot until the kernel file is available on the BootP server.
Enabling Netboot or Directed Netboot
By default, the router obtains the software image files from its local file system
and its configuration file from a BootP server. You can use Site Manager to
display and change these settings as follows:
