Quick Configuration
BOOTP. For the Network Management Card to use a BOOTP
server to configure its TCP/IP settings, it must find a properly
configured RFC951-compliant BOOTP server.
In the BOOTPTAB file of the BOOTP server, enter the
Management Card’s MAC address, IP address, subnet mask,
and default gateway, and, optionally, a bootup file name. For
the MAC address, look on the bottom of the Management Card
or on the Quality Assurance slip included in the package.
When the Management Card reboots, the BOOTP server
provides it with the TCP/IP settings.
• If you specified a bootup file name, the Management
Card attempts to transfer that file from the BOOTP
server using TFTP or FTP. The Management Card
assumes all settings specified in the bootup file.
• If you did not specify a bootup file name, you can
configure the other settings of the Management Card
remotely through its Web interface or control console;
user name and password are both apc, by default.

A user configuration (.ini) file can function as a
BOOTP or DHCP boot file. For more information,
see the TCP/IP configuration section of the
Network Management Card User’s Guide, available
from the Utility CD or the APC Web site,
www.apc.com.
