BootP

Emulex printer servers will accept and configure the following parameters
from a TCP/IP BootP server host:

• Gateway IP address(es)
• Host IP address
• Server Domain Name
• Server IP address
• Server Loadfile Path and Name
• Server Node Name
• Server Subnet Mask

Any other BootP parameters supplied by a BootP server host will be ignored
by the server code without any error indication.

1) Determine if BootP is running on the host.

BSD:

>

#ps -ax | grep bootp

System V:

>

#ps -e | grep bootp

If BootP is defined for background operation, an active BootP daemon is
displayed.

2) If an active BootP daemon is not listed, enter:

>

#grep bootp /directory/inetd.conf

directory

May be /etc/* or /usr/etc/*

If a BootP is present, it will be listed with its parameters.
