SYNOPSIS

tracelevel]
[-i
interface]
[-s
directory] |
DESCRIPTION
The
isibootd command is a server which supports OMRON LUNA's
network boot protocol based on the Transparent Remote File System (TRFS)
protocol. The TRFS protocol uses special Ethernet type packets and works
within a local network.
isibootd is a simple TRFS server that only supports client
reads for booting and exports files in a specified directory.
isibootd accepts requests only from clients listed in the
/etc/ethers and have valid hostnames.
The options are as follows:
-
-
- -d
tracelevel
- Run isibootd in debug mode with specified
tracelevel. The tracelevel can be value 1, 2, or 3, and greater tracelevel
provides more detailed trace output. The server will not fork in the debug
mode.
-
-
- -i
interface
- Specify a network interface to service network boot. If not
specified isibootd searches available network interfaces
(excluding loopback) and use the first configured “up”
one.
-
-
- -s
directory
- Specify a directory containing boot files to be served by
isibootd. If not specified isibootd
uses /tftpboot by default.
