UNIX/Linux-System Network
DHCP
There are many UNIX/Linux systems that support DHCP protocol,
and the procedures to configure the DHCP server database are
different. Refer to the UNIX/Linux manual for instructions on using
a different DHCP server. It is highly recommended that the DHCP
server should be located on the same network as the Print Server.
BOOTP
If you have the BOOTP daemon, bootpd, running on your UNIX/Linux
system that is accessible by the Print Server, you can use the BOOTP
protocol to set up the Print Server’s IP address. We recommend that
the BOOTP server is 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,
refer to your system documentation.
To configure the IP-address data for the BOOTP server, you will need
to log in the host of the 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=MFP_Server_ethernet_address:\
:ip=MFP_Server_ip_address:
