10/100 Internal Print Server for ZM400 and ZM600 User Guide
04/19/2007
Gleaning
A method by which the 10/100 Internal PS uses the IP address of the first ping packet that is
sent to its hardware address.
To use this method, complete these steps:
1.
Add an entry to the ARP table that assigns an IP address to an Ethernet (hardware)
address.
The syntax for this command is:
arp -s "temporary ipaddress of print server" "MAC Address
(print server hardware address)" arp -s <temporary ip
address> <MAC Address>
2.
Power cycle the printer.
3.
As the printer reboots, begin a continuous ping to the address assigned previously.
4.
When the 10/100 Internal PS begins to respond, stop the ping activity.
In Windows,
Ctrl + C
halts the pinging.
5.
Telnet to the 10/100 Internal PS and assign the appropriate IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway, if applicable.
6.
Once this is complete, reset the 10/100 Internal PS.
For details on resetting the 10/100 Internal PS, see

Note •
Gleaning works only on local subnets at routers. It does not pass Address Resolution
Protocol (ARP) broadcasts.
Example •
You would type:
arp -s 10.3.50.59 00-07-4d-68-1D-B9-86
Note •
Most UNIX systems use a continuous ping.
To use a continuous ping from a Windows host, you must issue the command:
ping -t "ipaddress"
