4 LAN Configuration
Initialization mode selection
Bootp & Store
When Bootp & Store is selected, the parameters obtained from a Bootp Server
become the active parameters immediately. In addition, they are stored to the
non-volatile memory of the module. Thus, after a power cycle they are still
available. This enables a kind of bootp once configuration of the module.
Example: The user may not want to have a Bootp Server be active in his
network all the time. But on the other side, he may not have any other
configuration method than Bootp. In this case he starts the Bootp Server
temporarily, powers on the module using the initialization mode Bootp & Store,
waits for the Bootp cycle to be completed, closes the Bootp Server and powers
off the module. Then he selects the initialization mode Using Stored and
powers on the module again. From now on, he is able to establish the TCP/IP
connection to the module with the parameters obtained in that single Bootp
cycle.

NOTE
Use the initialization mode Bootp & Store carefully, because writing to the non-volatile
memory takes time. Therefore, when the module shall obtain its parameters from a Bootp
Server every time it is powered on, the recommended initialization mode is Bootp!
