TFTP Configuration File Entries
To provide additional configuration parameters for your HP
JetDirect print server, such as SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol) or non-default settings, an additional
configuration file can be downloaded using TFTP. This TFTP
configuration file’s relative path name is specified in the BOOTP
reply using the
/etc/bootptab
file’s T144 vendor-specific tag
entry. An example of a TFTP configuration file is provided below
(the symbol ‘#’ denotes a remark and is not included in the file).
gw The gateway IP address tag. This address identifies the
IP address of the default gateway (router) that the HP
JetDirect print server will use for communications with
other subnets.
sm The subnet mask tag. The subnet mask will be used by
the HP JetDirect print server to identify the portions of an
IP address that specify the network/subnetwork number
and the host address.
lg The syslog server’s IP address tag. It specifies the server
that the HP JetDirect print server sends syslog messages
to.
T144 A vendor-specific tag that specifies the relative path name
of the TFTP configuration file. Maximum length of the path
name is 33 characters. The path name must be in double
quotes (for example,
“pathname”
). On HP-UX systems,
/usr/tftpdir
is prepended to the path. For file format
information, refer to “TFTP Configuration File Entries“.
