None. Either the XNIC was
already given a pre-defined IP
address by a system administrator,
or a DHCP server is enabled on a
file server.
Print a Printer Configuration Sheet and
check the IP address setting for TCP/IP listed
in the top portion.

Try Pinging to another IP node on the
network to add an entry into the ARP table.
