By using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This
protocol is supported in HP-UX, Solaris, Red Hat Linux, SuSE
Linux, Windows NT/2000, NetWare, and MacOS systems.
(Refer to your network operating system manuals to verify that
your operating system supports DHCP.) For more information,
see

DHCP

.

Note:

Linux and UNIX systems: For more information,
see the

bootpd

man page.

On HP-UX systems, a sample DHCP configuration
file (

dhcptab

) may be located in the

/etc

directory.

Since HP-UX presently does not provide Dynamic
Domain Name Services (DDNS) for its DHCP
implementations, HP recommends that you set all
print server lease durations to infinite. This ensures
that print server IP addresses remain static until
such time as Dynamic Domain Name Services are
provided.

By a network-based server using RARP (Reverse Address
Resolution Protocol) answering the print server's RARP request
and supplying the print server with the IP address. The RARP
method only allows you to configure the IP address. For more
information, see

RARP

.

By using the

arp

and

ping

commands from your system.

For more information, see

arp and ping commands

.

By setting configuration parameters using Telnet. In order to set
configuration parameters, set up a Telnet connection from your
system to the HP Jetdirect print server using the default IP
address. The default IP address takes effect two minutes after
the printer is turned on (if none of the other configuration
methods have been used). The default IP address is
192.0.0.192. If Telnet is used, the print server saves the
configuration over power cycles. For more information, see

Telnet

.

By browsing to the embedded Web server on the HP Jetdirect
print server and setting the configuration parameters. For more
