Boot Configuration
Boot configuration defines the location from which the console server loads the operating system.
The console server can boot from its internal firmware or from the network. By default, the ACS
6000 console server boots from Flash memory. Clicking Appliance Settings - Boot Configuration
will display the Boot Configuration screen.
If you need to boot from the network, make sure the following prerequisites are met:
• A TFTP or BootP server must be available on the network
• An upgraded console server boot image file must be downloaded from Avocent and made
available on the TFTP or BootP server
• The ACS 6000 console server must be configured with a fixed IP address
• The boot filename and the IP address of the TFTP or BootP server is known
The following table describes the boot configuration form fields.
