6.3.2     BOOTP 
If you have the BOOTP daemon, bootpd, running on your 
UNIX system that is accessible by the print server, you 
can use the BOOTP protocol to set up the IP address of 
the print server. We recommend that the BOOTP server 
should be located on the same subnet as the print server. 
If you use Network Information Services (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 the host of BOOTP server as the 
superuser (root). 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 a line such as: 
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:
