Note:
Setting the IP Address
using arp/ping
Refer to the appropriate section below to assign an IP address to your
Axis Network Print Server using arp/ping:
Windows
Open a Command Prompt and enter the following syntax:
The host will return reply from 192.168.3.191, or a similar message. This
indicates that the address has been set and that communication is
established. You are now ready to print.
UNIX, Mac OS X
Open a Terminal and enter the following syntax:
The host will return psname is alive, or a similar message. This indicates
that the address has been set and that communication is established. You
are now ready to print.
Important!
Notes:
Using RARP in
UNIX/Linux
Follow the instructions below to set the IP address using RARP.
If you are using host names, you can map a unique host name to the IP address. Refer to your
system manuals for instructions on how this is performed on your system.
Syntax Example
1.
2.
arp -s <Internet address> <Ethernet address>
ping <Internet address>
arp -s
192.168.3.191
00-40-8c-18-16-36
ping
192.168.3.191
Syntax Example
1.
2.
arp -s <Internet address> <Ethernet address>
ping <Internet address>
arp -s
192.168.3.191
00:40:8c:18:16:36
ping
192.168.3.191
You must define the Default Router and Subnet Mask when you set a static IP address. Log
in to the print server’s Web pages and select Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View |
TCP/IP Network | Default Router and Subnet Mask.
DHCP, Auto-IP, BOOTP and RARP must first be set to No!
• The Ethernet address is equal to the serial number, which is located on the underside
label of the AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e.
• The arp command varies between different UNIX systems. Some BSD type systems
expect the host name and node address in reverse order. Furthermore IBM AIX systems
will require the additional argument ether.
Example:
arp -s ether <host name> 00:40:8c:10:00:86 temp
• When you execute the ping command for the first time, you may experience a
significantly longer response time than usual.
• The ability to set the IP address with ARP and PING will only be enabled the first 10
minutes after restarting the print server.
