Use the TRIGGER VIA command to trigger the bootstrap mechanism of a target node such that the node will load itself. Use this command to initiate the loading sequence for an unattended system. This command triggers the target node via the specified circuit. The target node identification is obtained from the volatile database on the executor node. TRIGGER VIA circuit-id SERVICE PASSWORD hex-password PHYSICAL ADDRESS address All underscores found in parameters must be replaced with spaces when parameters are used in NCP commands.
1 – SERVICE PASSWORD hex-password
Identifies the password required to trigger the bootstrap mechanism on the target node.
2 – PHYSICAL ADDRESS
Applies only to nodes on broadcast circuits. Specifies the physical address that the target node currently use to identify itself. The value is the physical address the target node has set for itself, or, if the target node has not set a physical address, the HARDWARE ADDRESS parameter if associated with the target node in the executor node's volatile database. This parameter must be included if a broadcast circuit is specified in VIA circuit-id.
3 – VIA circuit-id
Identifies the circuit over which the operation is to take place.
4 – Examples
NCP>TRIGGER VIA DMC-5 This command triggers the bootstrap mechanism on the node connected to circuit DMC-5.
