OBP Variables

Before you perform the boot net command from the OBP prompt (ok), you must verify that the local-mac-address? variable is set to false, which is the factory default. If it is set to true, you must ensure that this value is an appropriate local configuration.

Caution - Caution -

If local-mac-address? is set to true, it may prevent the domain from successfully booting over the network.

In a netcon(1M) window, you can use the following command at the OBP prompt to display the values of the OBP variables:

ok printenv

To Set the local-mac-address? Variable

  1. If the variable is set to true, use the setenv command to set it to false.

    ok setenv local-mac-address? false
