typically located in the
/etc/ethers
file:
Example:
2. Update, if necessary, your host table and alias name databases, as
required by your system.
3. If it is not already running, start the RARP daemon. This is
typically performed using the
rarpd -a
command.
4. Restart the AXIS 560 to download the IP address.
Notes:
❏
If the host name has not been mapped to an IP address, simply
replace the host name entry with the IP address in the example

If you are using IBM AIX, you will probably not have access to a
RARP daemon. If this is the case, you can use either the ARP or
BOOTP methods instead.
