Setting the IP address using ARP

Refer to the appropriate section below to assign an IP address to your AXIS 5800+ using
ARP:
Windows 95, 98, NT, Me, 2000, XP
Open a Command Prompt and enter the following syntax:
Syntax
1.
arp -s <Internet address> <Ethernet address>
2.
ping <Internet address>
3.
arp -d <Internet address>
The host will return
the address has been set and that communication is established. You are now ready to
print using FTP or Reverse Telnet.
UNIX, Mac OS X
Open a Terminal and enter the following syntax:
Syntax
1.
arp -s <host name> <Ethernet address> temp
2.
ping <host name>
The host will return
has been set and that communication is established. You are now ready to print using FTP
or Reverse Telnet.
Notes:
• The Ethernet Address is the same as the serial number, found on the print server's underside
label. Enter the Ethernet Address in the same format as in the example above.
• The ability to set the IP address with arp and ping will only be enabled the first ten minutes
after re-booting the print server.
• When you execute the ping command for the first time, you may experience a significantly
longer response time than usual.
• The arp command varies between different UNIX systems.
• You need root privileges on your UNIX system in order to execute the arp command and run
axinstall (refer to the AXIS 5800+ User's Manual for more information).
• Some BSD type systems expect the host name and serial number in reverse order. Furthermore
IBM AIX systems will require the additional argument ether.
Example: arp -s ether <host name> <Ethernet Address> temp
reply from 192.168.3.191

psname is alive

arp -s 192.168.3.191 00-40-8c-10-00-86
ping 192.168.3.191
arp -d 192.168.3.191
, or a similar message. This indicates that
Example
arp -s psname 00:40:8c:10:00:86 temp
ping psname
