To configure annex do the following:
1) Hit return on terminal. If you do not get "monitor::" prompt
or nothing comes to the screen, hold the test button in the
middle of the front panel until it lights. It may still take a
little while for the prompt to appear.
2) If you do not know what the configuration is type "erase". This
will erase all settings in non volitile memory.
3) Type "addr" and follow prompts to configure network
configuration. Currently the annex is configured to tftpboot
from the neptune system. It boots the file "oper.42.enet" from
the /tftpboot directory.
Internet Address: 10.2.2.200
Network Mask: 255.255.255.0
Load Host: 10.2.2.60 neptune
Broadcast Address: 10.2.2.255
Dump Host: 10.2.2.60 neptune
Packet Enacapsulation:
Load Broadcast: N
4) After configuring the network addresses, type "boot". You should
see it complete a tftp boot.
5) You should now be able to do a "ping annex". Next, login as root
on neptune and change directories to /usr/local/annex. Then type
"./na". This is the annex network configuration program.
6) Type "annex annex". This will select our annex server for
configuring.
7) Type "read /usr/local/annex/att_lab.config". The annex will be down
loaded with our current port configuration.
Inaddtion to the above configuration, two socket level programs have
been written to support remote embedded box rebooting and down loading
of the NVRAM. The source for these two programs is located at:
