ENWW TCP/IP Configuration 35

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 located in the /etc directory.

Since HP-UX presently 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 provided.

● RARP. A network-based server can use RARP (Reverse Address

Resolution Protocol) to answer the print server's RARP request

and supplying the print server with the IP address. The RARP

method only allows you to configure the IP address. For more

information, see “Using RARP

”.

● arp and ping commands. (For print servers configure with

Legacy default IP address 192.0.0.192 only) You can use the arp

and ping commands from your system. For more information,

see “Using the arp and ping Commands

”.

● Telnet. You can set configuration parameters using Telnet. In

order to set configuration parameters, set up a Telnet

connection from your system to the HP Jetdirect print server

using the default IP address. Once configured, the print server

saves the configuration when powered off/on. For more

information, see “Using Telnet

”.

● Embedded Web server. You can browse to the embedded Web

server on the HP Jetdirect print server to set the configuration

parameters. For more information, see Chapter 4

● Printer Control Panel. You can manually enter the

configuration data using the printer control panel keys. The

control panel method allows you to configure only a limited

subset of configuration parameters. Therefore, control panel

configuration is recommended only during troubleshooting or

for simple installations. If control panel configuration is used,

the print server saves the configuration when powered off/on.

For more information, see “Using the Printer Control Panel

”.
