Section 4 Basic Installation (Cable & Wireless)
In order to access your AXIS 5800+ Mobile print server it needs
to have an IP-address assigned to it. Follow the instructions
given here in order to assign an IP address to your AXIS 5800+
Mobile print server.
You need root privileges on your UNIX system, or administrator
privileges on a Windows NT server to:
• set the IP address using RARP, BOOTP, DHCP
• add an entry to the ARP table with the command 'arp -s'
You need to know the Ethernet address of your AXIS 5800+
Mobile in order to assign an IP address to it. The Ethernet
address is based upon the serial number of your AXIS 5800+
Mobile. This means, for example, that an AXIS 5800+ Mobile
with the serial number of 00408C100086, will have the
corresponding Ethernet address of 00 40 8C 10 00 86. The serial
number is located on the bottom label of the print server.
Unless you are downloading the IP address using DHCP or Auto-
IP, you must obtain an unused IP address from your network
administrator.
• DO NOT use the IP addresses used in the following examples
when installing your AXIS 5800+ Mobile. Consult your network
administrator before assigning an IP address to your AXIS 5800+
Mobile.
