Printing from UNIX: Configuring the Print Server The first step in installing the network card under UNIX is to set up the IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway. This section explains one way to set them up from a UNIX workstation. • The network addresses used in this manual are shown as examples only. Network addresses used in your installation must be generated for your own network. • Log in as [root] to change the configuration of the Print Server. By default, there is no root password. Important! If an incorrect IP address, Subnet Mask or Gateway is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur. Check the address with your network manager. The following explanation uses Sun Solaris 2.8 (Solaris 8) as an example. The actual commands may differ between versions of UNIX, so refer to the workstation manuals for more information. 1. Log in as root to the workstation. If you do not have superuser rights, the network manger should conduct the configuration. 2. If the print server does not have an IP addresses already assigned, use the arp command to set a temporary IP address. Example For IP address 172.68.20.127 and network card address 00:80:92:01:00:D2: # arp -s 172.168.20.127 00:80:92:01:00:D2 temp The MAC (Ethernet) address 00:80:92:01:00:D2 in the above example can be determined from the network card self-diagnostic test which can be printed by pressing the Test button on the network card for three seconds and then releasing it. 3. Use the ping command to confirm the connection with the network interface card. OkiLAN 8200e Network User's Guide 184
