Installing the Model 8000 Remote Access Concentrator
Preparing for Installation
To install the Model 8000 Remote Access Concentrator, you need:
• A console terminal
• A valid IP address
• An appropriate subnet mask
• A host with Model 8000 RAC software installed (if not
booting from flash memory)
The RAC can obtain its operational image from any one of these sources:
• A UNIX host running erpcd
• A Windows NT host running erpcd
• Flash memory (self-boot)
• Another Model 8000 RAC configured as a boot host
• Any host supporting TFTP
The RAC must be connected to the network to receive its operational
image, except when self booting. When self booting, the operational
image is contained within the Flash memory of the RAC. A console
terminal (connected to the console port on the rear panel) is the input
device used to enter basic configuration parameter values for the RAC.
Booting from a UNIX Host
If you plan to download the image from a UNIX host to the RAC, you
must first install the RAC operational software and image on the UNIX
host. Refer to Installing Remote Access Concentrator Software for UNIX
for instructions and detailed information.
