Automatic Configuration with BootP
Assigning IP Addresses Using the Agilent BootP Service
The Agilent BootP Service assigns the Hardware MAC address of the
instrument to an IP address.
Determining the MAC address of the instrument using BootP Service
1 Power cycle the Instrument.
2 After the instrument completes self-test, open the log file of the BootP
Service using Notepad.
• The default location for the logfile is C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\
Application Data\Agilent\BootP\LogFile.
• The logfile will not be updated if it is open.
The contents will be similar to the following:
3 Record the hardware (MAC) address (for example, 0010835675AC).
4 The Error means the MAC address has not been assigned an IP address and
the Tab File does not have this entry. The MAC address is saved to the Tab
File when an IP address is assigned.
5 Close the log file before turning on another instrument.
6 Uncheck the Do you want to log BootP requests? box after configuring
instruments to avoid having the logfile use up excessive disk space.
Adding each instrument to the network using BootP
1 Follow Start > All Programs > Agilent BootP Service and select Edit BootP
Settings. The BootP Settings screen appears.
2 Uncheck the Do you want to log BootP requests? once all instruments have been
added.
