The contents of the NVRAM.DAT file can be changed only at reboot time.

  • boot device — the options are:

    • network (fei)

      When fei is configured, other parameter configurations are required; see below.

    • device flash (ata). The flash location is identified by numerals.

  • processor number — must be set to 0.

  • host name — name of the host machine from which to boot.

  • file name — full pathname of the boot.tim.

  • inet on ethernet (e) — Internet address of the Ethernet interface.

  • inet on backplane (b) — Internet address of the backplane interface. Not used.

  • user (u) — username used to ftp the boot load.

  • ftp password (pw )— password used to ftp the boot load.

  • target name (tn )— name of the 7701 CPAA system. The target name is the name of the system which is displayed in the CLI prompt and the NFM-P. The system name can later be changed using the following CLI command:
