(NIS) in your system, you may need to rebuild the
NIS map with the BOOTP services before doing the
following BOOTP configuration. To rebuild the NIS
map, please refer to your system documentation.
To configure the IP address data for the BOOTP
server, you will need to log in as the host of the
BOOTP server with superuser (root) admin rights.
Perform the following steps to add address entries:
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the
print server’s IP address. You can add this address
to the /etc/hosts file, by adding the following line:
203.66.191.12 pserver
2. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/bootptab file,
similar to the following:
hostname:\
:ht=1:\
:ha=print_server_ethernet_address:\
:ip=print_server_ip_address:
Lines should be indented with tabs.
Where hostname is the device name of the
HWPS12UG; the ht=1 tag specifies that the hardware
type is Ethernet. The ha= tag specifies that the
Ethernet address of the HWPS12UG is the Node ID
located on the print server. The ha tag must be
preceded by the ht tag. The ip= tag should
correspond to the IP address you want to assign to
the print server.
