TCP/IP Configuration 37
Why Use BOOTP/TFTP?
Using BOOTP/TFTP to download configuration data has the
following benefits:
●
Enhanced configuration control of the HP Jetdirect print server.
Configuration by other methods, such as a printer control panel,
are limited to select parameters.
●
Ease of configuration management. Network configuration
parameters for the entire network can be in one location.
●
Ease of HP Jetdirect print server configuration. Complete
network configuration can be automatically downloaded each
time the print server is powered on.
Note
BOOTP operation is similar to DHCP, but the
resulting IP parameters will be the same when
powered off/on. In DHCP, IP configuration
parameters are leased and may change over time.
When in its factory-default state and powered on, the HP Jetdirect
print server will attempt to automatically configure itself using
several dynamic methods, one of which is BOOTP.
BOOTP/TFTP on UNIX
This section describes how to configure the print server using
BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) and TFTP (Trivial File Transfer
Protocol) services on UNIX servers. BOOTP and TFTP are used
to download network configuration data from a server to the
HP Jetdirect print server over the network.
Systems That Use Network Information Service (NIS)
If your system uses NIS, you may need to rebuild the NIS map with
the BOOTP service before performing the BOOTP configuration
steps. Refer to your system documentation.
