Setting From Unix Operating Systems - Xerox DocuPrint N4025 Information Manual

Setting from Unix Operating Systems

Perform these steps to enter the IP Address using ARP and
telnet from a Unix OS. Some DocuPrint network printers
do not support telnet. For these printers, enter the IP
address from the Control Panel as described in the
previous section.
Telnet only works if the device is on the same subnet as the
host (i.e. computer or workstation).
1 Use a text editor to open the /etc/hosts file.
2 Add the following line: x.x.x.x name, where x.x.x.x is
the IP address you are assigning and name is the host
name.
3
Save the /etc/hosts file.
4 Create a static ARP entry by typing one of the following
commands, depending on your system:
• arp -s ether name aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa[Enter] (no leading
zeros: RS-6000)
• arp -s name aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa[Enter] (no leading zeros:
most UNIX systems)
• arpbypass set name 0xaa. 0xaa. 0xaa. 0xaa. 0xaa.
0xaa[Enter] (AT&T and NCR)
where aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa is the Ethernet Address
For example, on a SunOS system if the Ethernet Address
was "0040C800012B" and the host name was Alpha you
would type: arp -s alpha 0:40:C8:0:1:2B
The Ethernet Address can be found on the
Configuration Sheet. If you are using a Xerox
CentreDirect External Print Server (External
Ethernet Adapter) the Ethernet Address can be
found on a label located on the bottom of the
CentreDirect.
