ENWW TCP/IP Configuration 72
Using RARP
Note For HP Jetdirect wireless print servers, this section
assumes that a wireless connection to your network
has been established.
This section describes how to configure the print server using the
Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) on UNIX and Linux
systems.
This setup procedure enables the RARP daemon running on your
system to respond to a RARP request from the HP Jetdirect print
server and to supply the IP address to the print server.
1. Turn the printer off.
2. Log onto your UNIX or Linux system as a superuser.
3. Make sure the RARP daemon is running on your system by
typing the following command at the system prompt:
ps -ef | grep rarpd (Unix)
ps ax | grep rarpd (BSD or Linux)
4. The system response should be similar to the following:
861 0.00.2 24 72 5 14:03 0:00 rarpd -a
860 0.00.5 36 140 5 14:03 0:00 rarpd -a
5. If the system does not display a process number for the RARP
daemon, see the rarpd man page for instructions on starting the
RARP daemon.
6. Edit the /etc/hosts file to add your designated IP address and
node name for the HP Jetdirect print server. For example:
192.168.45.39 laserjet1
