Dynamic IP Address Configuration
Configuring Chameleon for a dynamic IP address requires configuring BOOTP protocol. FastLink II should be
configured for dynamic IP address.
NOTE: Make sure that you have loaded the FastLink II driver (FLODI) into memory from the
DOS prompt before proceeding. Otherwise, you will have to manually configure the driver type
to ODI in the
Hardware
pulldown in
Setup
.
To configure Chameleon for BOOTP:
1
Click on the "Custom" icon in the ChameleonNFS Windows group.
2
Click on the BOOTP on the Setup pulldown menu. Leave the address 0, and check the "Use
BOOTP" box.
To configure FastLink II for a dynamic IP address:
1
Run FastLink II, and select the Connections button at the left of the screen. Highlight the Connect
drop-down box, and select the connection whose settings you want to set for your IP connection.
2
Click on the
[IP Protocol Settings]
button, and check the Dynamic IP address button.
