Additional Mechanisms for Establishing an IP Address

Enabling IP access using ARP

You must be on the same Ethernet segment to use the arp -s
command. There cannot be a router between the NIC and the
system using ARP.

The arp mechanism will only enable that workstation to access
the NIC using the IP address used in the arp command. It is still
necessary to set that IP address on the NIC using any NIC
configuration utility in order for that IP address to be saved on the
NIC.

To use arp on Windows:

1.

From the MS-DOS prompt use the arp -s command to enter
the IP address into the NIC as shown in the following
example:

arp -s 192.189.207.77 00-40-17-00-ed-d6

Substitute your actual IP address for 192.189.207.77, and
replace the 00-40-17-00-ed-d6 with the actual Ethernet
address of the NIC.

2.

Use the ping command with the NIC’s IP address to verify the
connection. For example:

ping 192.189.207.77

Substitute your actual NIC IP address in 192.189.207.77 in
the above examples. You should get a response back from
the NIC if the IP address has been set and the NIC installed
in the printer is alive on the network.

Using Arp on Unix Systems

To use arp, enter the following command at the UNIX system
prompt:

arp -s ipaddress ethernetaddress temp

Ethernetaddress is the Ethernet address of the print server, and
IPaddress is the IP address of the print server. For example:

arp -s 192.189.207.2 00:40:17:00:c3:e4 temp
