FIGURE 2.  NL100/105 Jumper Placement

When the jumper is in place, open the HyperTerminal connection to the
NL100/105 and power up the device. The prompt "NL100 boot" will appear.
At this prompt, press <Enter> a few times to ring up the NL100/105. If
communication is successfully established, a message will be returned
indicating that the NL100/105 is initialized, along with the jumper setting (1 =
on, 0 = off), the TCP/IP address, Telnet port address, and current
communication configuration. If <Enter> is pressed again, the NL100/105
menu prompt will appear.

After reconfiguring the NL100/105 for communication,
the jumper should be disconnected. If this jumper
remains in place and power to the NL100/105 is cycled
off and back on, the NL100/105 will remain at the
"NL100 boot" prompt and will not boot up. This will
render the NL100/105 inaccessible via remote
communications.

2.3  NL100/105 Menu Options

The NL100/105 prompt lists all of the available menu options. Only the first
few characters of the main menu options need to be typed – the remaining
characters will be completed automatically. Press <Enter> to execute the
command. Each menu option is explained below.

2.3.1  Ver

Ver returns version information about the NL100/105. The ROM number, OS
version, Ethernet physical address, and some diagnostic statistics are displayed.
