Users Manual SX
Register on the BOOTP server the combination of IP address and Ethernet address that the
PRICOM will use. IP address will be configured to PRICOM by turning the power on.
-To configure IP address by BOOTP, you need a workstation that is running BOOTP within the
network.
The example below shows an IP address configuration by a UNIX BOOTP server.
Example: Ethernet address is “00809200110f”, IP address is “192.168.10.100” and host name is “pbox”.
1. Add following configuration to /etc/bootptab.
pbox:\
ht=ether:\ # Target hardware type is ETHERNET
ha=00809200110f:\ # Target hardware address
ip=192.168.10.100:\ # Target IP address
gw=192.168.10.254:\ # Default gateway address (If required)
sm=255.255.255.0: # Target subnet mask (If required)
2. Add following configuration to /etc/inetd.conf.
bootps dgram udp wait root /etc/bootpd bootpd
3. Reboot inetd.
kill -1 1
4. Reset PRICOM and printer.
TIP
NOTE
