to get it to ask for an IP address spam alt+m starting from boot.

it'll ask that IP address using some protocol I don't know on port 4446.

something about xTvFusion5.0

here, have an RFC URN:

urn:ietf:rfc:2236

default read management password is "leaves"

default write management password is "snake"

(I haven't had to use these yet)
