Defining Parameter Loading Methods
This section describes how to specify the unit’s parameter loading methods.
All MAXserver units are configured at the factory to store configuration data
(parameters) locally in Non-volatile storage (NVS). Alternatively, you can
use DEFINE SERVER commands to change the parameter loading method.
See the Commands Reference Guide for a complete listing of DEFINE
SERVER commands.
As an option, you can configure the unit to load parameters from a network
host, called a parameter server, using the Access server Configuration
Menu.
Once you have selected the image loading methods and pressed Return, the
unit displays the following prompt:
Enable ALL methods for parameter loading (Y,N) [Y]?
‘Y’ - All methods are selected.
‘N’ - You can select specific method(s). The configuration menu prompts:
Toggle (NVS,XMOP,MOP,BOOTP,RARP)parameter load methods
[N,X,M,B,R]:
The valid methods are listed in the following table. You can select up to four
loading methods.
