Hi, Please check your configuration about the gateway. If the gateway's value is right, there is no need to set netmask value.

The line what works is at open firmware prompt is: boot /vdevice/l-lan@30000002:speed=auto,duplex=auto,192.168.14.115,,192.168.14.16,000.000.000.000,5,5,255.255.255.0,512 what doesn't is boot /vdevice/l-lan@30000002:speed=auto,duplex=auto,bootp,192.168.14.115,,192.168.14.16,192.168.14.254 I have eliminated it down to by changing lpar_netboot.expect to use < set net_device(0) "$full_path_name:speed=$speed,duplex= $duplex,bootp,$server_ip,,$client_ip,$gateway_ip" --- > set net_device(0) "$full_path_name:speed=$speed,duplex= $duplex,bootp,$server_ip,,$client_ip,$gateway_ip,,,$netmask," this works every time. seems there are some "extra_args" options as in set net_device(0) "$full_path_name:speed=$speed,duplex= $duplex,bootp,$server_ip,,$client_ip,$gateway_ip $extra_args" but I can't figure out how to set them. Am i missing something in the tables that would set this field? rnetboot -V Version 2.6.2 (svn r10179, built Thu Jul 28 02:53:32 EDT 2011) xCAT-2.6.1-snap201106162318 xCAT-rmc-2.6-snap201104261130 xCAT-server-2.6.2-snap201107280255 xCAT-IBMhpc-2.5.2-snap201103110418 perl-xCAT-2.6.2-snap201107280253 xCAT-client-2.6.2-snap201107192314 Regards, Dale............
