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:
Lines should be indented with tabs.
Where hostname is the device name of a print server, the ht=1 tag
specifies the hardware type is Ethernet, the ha= tag specifies the Ethernet
address of a print server, which is the Node ID located on the print server.
The ha tag must be preceded by the ht tag. The ip= tag should
correspond to the IP address you want to assign to the print server.
For example, a print server with the following configuration:
Node ID: 0000B4010101 (this implies Ethernet
address is 0000B4010101),
IP address: 203.66.191.12
The entry for this print server in the /etc/bootptab file should be:
PS010101:\
:ht=1:\
:ha=0000B4010101:\
:ip=203.66.191.12:
6.4 Verify Print Server’s IP Address
To verify that your print server is responding to the newly assigned IP
address using a PING command:
ping ip-address
