TCP/IP Configuration-21

The Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (rarp) allows network devices to query a 
server for their IP addresses on start-up. For this procedure, there needs to be a work-
station with a rarp server. To store the IP address, use the following procedure:

1. Turn off the printer.

2. Log in as superuser on the rarp server.  However, if the server resides on another 

subnet, complete this procedure to store the IP address in the print server. Recon-

nect the print server anywhere on the network, and then use the Telnet or the 

HTML pages accessed by MAP or a Web Browser to adjust the IP parameters for 

the subnet on which the Print Server Card is to operate. 

3. Find the Ethernet address of the Print Server Card.  The address is printed on the 

configuration status report when you power on the printer.

4. Edit the hosts file (usually /etc/hosts) or use NIS or DIS to add the IP Address and 

Print Server Card's node name. See the network administrator for the IP address. 

For example, a print server with the name of printfast has the following entry:

192.9.200.200  printfast

5. Edit the /etc/ethers file or use NIS or DIS to add the Ethernet address. To continue 

the example, for the printfast card with an Ethernet address of 00:40:c8:00:00:ff, 

make the following entry: 

0:40:c8:0:0:ff printfast

6. If the rarp daemon is running, stop it and restart it.  Verify that the daemon is run-

ning.

7. Check the printer to see that the print server is connected to the network. Turn on 

the printer.

8. Wait until the printer powers up and finishes initializing to allow enough time for 

the IP address to become known and to be saved in non-volatile memory.  The 

Print Server Card should then reset itself.

9. After the Print Server Card has reset, send a ping command to verify that the print 

server obtained its IP address.  For example:

ping 192.9.200.200

If the print server has the address, the result is a confirmation message:

192.9.200.200 is alive
