Installing your IOLAN+
This can be achieved by uploading the configuration of the
unit to a host on the network. To do this, enter the
Communications Server Menu
from the
Administration
Menu.
Select the
Init file
entry of this menu.
Set this to the full pathname of the file in which you wish to
store the configuration. Set
Boot host
to the host machine
you wish the file to reside within and save these entries.
Boot host: rockvegas (or ip address)
Init file: /tftp/term_serv.cfg
Log onto the host machine in the normal manner and create
the file you have specified in the IOLAN+ menu, this could
be as shown below:
touch term_serv.cfg
Note: This file must exist with the correct read/write
permissions before you can write to it.
This can be accomplished by hitting and selecting the
CLI
option in the pop up menu. At the
iolan>
prompt, use the
CLI
as the administrator by typing:
su
and enter the password and type:
save config
This uploads the communications server port configurations to
the host in a format that can be downloaded at a later date.
Note: This does not save any of the settings configured in
the
Server Configuration Menu
, including the IP address,
language, name, subnet mask, etc.
IOLAN+ will now automatically download this configuration
on reboot. Remember that whenever you change a setting
on the unit, it will be overwritten the next time the unit is
rebooted unless the new configuration is saved.
