minutes after restarting the print server.
• By using the
arp -d
command, the static entry in the arp table is removed from the
host’s cache memory.
Syntax
Example
arp -s <IP address> <Ethernet address>
ping <IP address>
arp -s 192.168.3.191 00:40:8c:10:00:86

• If the host name has not been mapped to an IP address, simply replace the host name entry
with the IP address.

expect the host name and node address in reverse order. Furthermore IBM AIX systems will
require the additional argument
