Installation and Reference for the Model PS104/PS105/PS110 Print Server 4. Add to the Boot Table in the /etc/booptab file: NAME:ht=ether:vm=rfc1024::ha=PA:ip=IP:sm=SM:gw=GW Use these definitions for entering the information: • NAME is the name of your print server. • PA is the physical address of your print server. • IP is the IP address of your print server. • SM is the Subnet Mask IP address. Refer to Appendix B, "Understanding IP Addresses," for additional information about assigning a Subnet Mask IP address. • GW is the Gateway IP address. Refer to Appendix B, "Understanding IP Addresses," for additional information about assigning a Gateway IP address. 5. Start the BootP daemon (the usual command is BOOTPd) if the command in step 2 did not start the BootP process, and then reset the print server so that it obtains an IP address using BootP. 6. Compare the IP address to MAC address association to assure that an IP address has been assigned, using the ping command: ping NAME NAME is the name of the print server. You should receive a response. If you get a timeout message, the BootP procedure has failed. You can either follow the steps again for using BootP or use one of the other methods for assigning an IP address. 7. Proceed to "Configuring Your Print Server Using FTP" on page 6-7 to configure the print server, if it has not yet been configured. Assigning an IP Address to the Print Server Using RARP To assign an IP address using the Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP): 1. Determine the physical address and the device name of the print server. The factory default name and the physical address are shown on a sticker on the bottom of the unit. The default name on your device is PSxxxxxx. 2. Log in to the UNIX host as root. 6-4 UNIX Printing Using TCP/IP
