5. telnet to the Internal Ethernet Adapter. This will bring up a login
screen.
telnet
ipname
6. Log on to the Print Server as root.
7. At the password prompt, press <Enter>. No password is required
at this point as the Internal Ethernet Adapter is still unconfigured.
NOTE: This WARNING message is normal at this point and should be
ignored:
STORED AND CURRENT VALUES DIFFER
You should now see a prompt displayed having the Internal
Ethernet Adapter followed by a colon, then root.
ipaddress
:root>
8. Store the new IP address and netmask in EEPROM so the Internal
Ethernet Adapter remembers its configuration after rebooting.
Enter:
store tcpip
ifnum
addr
ipaddress
store tcpip
ifnum
mask
netmask
NOTE:
ifnum
is the index to a particular Network Interface.
ifnum
will
always be 1 for the Internal Ethernet Adapter.
9. [Optional, but recommended] Configure root and guest user
passwords with the following commands:
set user passwd root
newrootpasswd
set user passwd guest
newguestpasswd
10. Save these configurations to EEPROM. Enter:
save
11. Verify the IP address and netmask. Enter:
list stored tcpip
These are now stored in EEPROM.
12. Log out of the Telnet session with quit. Reboot the Internal
Ethernet Adapter by powering the unit off, then on.
13. Test the equipment and configuration after installation is complete.
Enter at the shell prompt on your UNIX machine:
ping
ipname
