TARTUP
Once you have installed the server hardware as described in Chapter 2,
“Installation,” you are ready to start your server. You can start from
software stored on a 3Com Remote Boot and Configuration Services
(RBCS) server, from a generic TFTP/FTP server, or from a diskette
inserted in the local drive (CS/2600 only).
Although some multiprotocol communications software packages
include Network Control Server (NCS) software for backward
compatibility, 3Com no longer provides technical support for NCS
software or servers.
You can follow these procedures for most hardware configurations
without changing the default firmware configuration. If you want to
change the firmware configuration, do so before booting the server. For
more information, refer to Chapter 4, “Configuration.”
If you plan to use a console to access the monitor, you must first make
sure the console is operating correctly. Refer to “Cabling a Console” on
page 2-5.
Booting from the
Network
The CS/2500, which has no diskette drive, can boot only from the
network. The CS/2600 can boot either from the network or from a local
diskette.
To boot a CS/2600 from the network, you must configure the initial boot
source to “Network” or “Network then Floppy.” For information on
changing the initial boot source, refer to “Initial Boot Source” on
page 4-7.
