5. Edit the /etc/ethers file or use NIS or DIS to add the MAC
Address. To continue the example, for the printfast card with an
MAC Address of 00:20:6b:aa:bb:cc:
00:20:6b:aa:bb:cc printfast
6. If the rarp daemon is running, stop it and restart it. Verify that
the daemon is running.
7. Check the printer to see that the print server is connected to the
network. Turn on the printer.
8. Wait until the printer powers up and finishes initializing to
allow enough time for the IP address to become known and to
be saved in NVRAM. The NIC should then reset itself.
9. After the NIC has reset, send a ping command to verify that the
print server obtained its IP address. For example:
#ping 192.9.200.200
If the print server has the address, the result is a confirmation
message:
192.9.200.200 is alive
10. Remove, or comment out your changes to the /etc/ethers file.
11. Stop the rarp daemon and, if you want it to run, restart it.
6.2.1.3 Using arp & ping
Use the following procedure to enter the IP Address:
1.
Turn off the printer.
2. Log in as superuser (root) on a host on the same subnet as the
print server. However, if the server resides on another subnet,
complete this procedure to store the IP address in the print
server. Reconnect the print server anywhere on the network,
and then use Telnet or the HTML pages accessed by MAP or a
Web Browser to change the IP address. See 6.3 Running Telnet,
for instructions on using Telnet.
3. Find the MAC Address of the NIC. The address is printed on
the status report each time you turn the printer on.
