Micro-CS Installation Guide 3-1
CHAPTER 3
ROM MONITOR COMMANDS
3.1 GENERAL
This chapter describes the ROM Monitor commands. These commands
are accessed through a terminal connected to port 1 when the Micro-CS is
in SETUP mode. Pressing the SETUP switch within 3 seconds of
powering up puts the Micro-CS into Set Up mode.
The ROM Monitor commands allow you to set a number of EEPROM
parameters. Some of these parameters, like the unit’s Internet address, are
required for booting the Micro-CS; some parameters, like the broadcast
address, are required if the network configuration differs from the
supplied defaults. Table 3-1 lists the ROM Monitor commands.
Other parameters, although not required, are recommended for the
Micro-CS’s initial boot. Setting these parameters rather than using the
assigned defaults minimizes errors during the initial boot. For example,
setting the parameter that defines the preferred load host enables the
Micro-CS to load by requesting assistance from a specific host rather than
by broadcasting that request to all hosts on the Ethernet.
You can define the same parameters using the Network Administrator
(na) program as you can using the ROM Monitor. ROM Monitor
commands generally provide data about current EEPROM parameters.
When appropriate, they also display a prompt that allows the operator to
change those parameters. Default or current values for parameters are
displayed in brackets. For example:
Enter broadcast address [132.245.6.255]:
At the prompt enter a different value or press the Return key <cr> to
leave the displayed value unchanged.
You can use unique abbreviations for all ROM Monitor commands except
erase. For example, enter boot as bo, and enter net as n. If you enter an
abbreviation that is not unique enough, an error message is displayed on
the console terminal.
