CHAPTER 12 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION
12-8
Using RARP to Configure the IP Address
Brother print server IP address can be configured using the Reverse ARP (rarp)
facility on your host computer. This is done by editing the /etc/ethers file (if this file
does not exist, you can create it) with an entry similar to the following:
00:80:77:31:01:07 BRN_310107
Where the first entry is the Ethernet address of the print server and the second entry
is the name of the print server (the name must be the same as the one you put in the
/etc/hosts file).
If the rarp daemon is not already running, start it (depending on the system the
command can be rarpd, rarpd -a, in.rarpd -a or something else; type man rarpd or
refer to your system documentation for additional information). To verify that the
rarp daemon is running on a Berkeley UNIX-based system, type the following
command:
ps -ax | grep -v grep | grep rarpd
For AT&T UNIX-based systems, type:
ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep rarpd
The Brother print server will get the IP address from the rarp daemon when it is
powered on.
