Complete Command List

Store the IP address for the NIC.

store tcpip ifnum mask netmask

store tcpip 1 mask 255.255.255.0

Store the subnet mask for the NIC.

store tcpip ifnum opts [[-]rarp] [[-]bootp] [[-]dhcp]

store tcpip 1 opts -rarp -bootp -dhcp

Enable or disable the automatic RARP, BOOTP, or DHCP requests for IP
addresses upon bootup. If you are storing the NIC TCP/IP network
settings within the device, you will not need to rely on RARP, BOOTP, or
DHCP for new settings.

store tcpip ifnum frametype [[-]ethernet2]
[[-]802.2snap]

store tcpip 1 frametype ethernet2 802.2snap

Control which frame type(s) is supported with the TCP/IP protocol. By
default, both

ethernet2

and

802.2snap

are enabled but normal

TCP/IP communications rely on Ethernet 2. This setting has no affect on
other supported network protocols (e.g., Novell).

store tcpip route add|del host|net IPaddress ifnum

store tcpip route add net 192.75.12.0 1

store tcpip route del net 192.75.12.9 1

Add or delete a static route to a particular TCP/IP host or subnet specified
by

IPaddress

so the NIC knows how to communicate with it. Normally

one entry for a default router/gateway is all that is needed for
communications between different subnets. Please see the next
command for details.

store tcpip route add|del default routerIPaddress
ifnum

store tcpip route add default 192.75.11.1 1

Store a default router/gateway defined by

routerIPaddress

so the NIC

knows where to direct packets destined for another subnet. It is easier to
store one default entry rather than an entry per remote host or network as
in the previous command.

store tcpip tcp rxwin packets

store tcpip tcp rxwin 2

Determine the receive window size for the NIC. Usually the

packets

value ranges from 2 to 8 with the lower number allowing for more
simultaneous TCP connections with the print server.

store tcpip tcp opts [-]keepalive [-]disbufmgmt

store tcpip tcp opts keepalive -disbufmgmt

Control whether the NIC maintains a connection with a host when data
cannot be accepted into its buffer. Normally the

keepalive

feature is

enabled so when the printer can not accept data, the print job connection
is maintained and continued once the situation clears. If

disbufmgmt

is

disabled (i.e., “-”), the NIC will not buffer any data when there is a blocked
situation with the printer. Normally it is best to have both

keepalive

and

disbufmgmt

enabled.

store tcpip tcp access [root] add|del IPaddress
