Note The BOOTP daemon, bootpd, must be running on a BOOTP server that is accessible by the Jetdirect print server. O By using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This protocol is supported in HP-UX, Solaris, Linux, Windows and Mac OS systems. (Refer to your network operating system manuals to verify that your operating system supports DHCP.) If not configured through BOOTP/TFTP, the HP Jetdirect print server will also attempt to download its configuration from a DHCP server.

If your HP-UX system does not provide Dynamic Domain Name Services (DDNS) for its DHCP implementations, HP recommends that you set all print server lease durations to infinite.

3-26 TCP/IP Configuration
ENWW
Note
The BOOTP daemon, bootpd, must be running
on a BOOTP server that is accessible by the
Jetdirect print server.
By using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This
protocol is supported in HP-UX, Solaris, Linux, Windows and
Mac OS systems. (Refer to your network operating system
manuals to verify that your operating system supports
DHCP.) If not configured through BOOTP/TFTP, the HP
Jetdirect print server will also attempt to download its
configuration from a DHCP server.
Note
Linux and UNIX systems: For more
information, see the bootpd man page.
On HP-UX systems, a sample DHCP
configuration file (dhcptab) may be loaded in
the
/etc
directory.
If your HP-UX system does not provide
Dynamic Domain Name Services (DDNS) for its
DHCP implementations, HP recommends that
you set all print server lease durations to
infinite
. This ensures that print server IP
addresses remain static until such time as
Dynamic Domain Name Services are available.
By a network-based server using RARP (Reverse Address
Resolution Protocol) answering the print server's RARP
request and supplying the print server with the IP address.
RARP only allows you to configure the IP address.
