Use the procedures in
Assigning IP Address with BOOTP Lite
if you need to use BootP Lite to configure the IP address
instead of ARP:
1. From Windows, enter the MS/DOS box.
2. At the command prompt enter:
ping
[any valid IP address on your network - not the
print server]; the identified unit should reply
arp -s
[IP address of NIC] [MAC Address of NIC]; the
entry should be accepted
ping
[IP address of NIC]; request should time out
3. Recycle the power on the printer, or let the NIC reset
itself. The NIC will produce a status page that should
include the entered IP address.
4. When the NIC is up again, type the following at the
command prompt:
ping
[IP address of NIC] (continue until you get a
reply)
Assigning IP Address with BOOTP Lite
This program uses the BOOTP protocol. The NIC must be on
the same network segment as the workstation that you are
using to configure it. The TCP/IP stack must be installed and
operating.
Note
This this only enters the IP address; you must use the Telnet
facility. See Running TELNET (page 5-47) for instructions
on how to enter the other IP parameters.
