Section 6: Setup for Unix systems

Prepare your system

Find an unused IP address

Important:

Update your system host table

Example:

Update your alias name data bases

Each node in a TCP/IP network must have a unique Internet (IP) address, and also a unique host name to be used as an alias for the IP address. Before you add your NPS 530/532 to a TCP/IP network, you must prepare your system for a new node.

The IP addresses used in your network are listed in the system host table (/etc/hosts on most Unix systems). Find an unused IP address, and choose a unique host name for your NPS 530/532.

Don’t use the default or example IP address when installing your NPS 530/532. Always consult your network manager before assigning an Internet Address.

Open the system host table using a text editor (e.g. vi /etc/hosts), and add a line containing the IP address and host name for your NPS 530/532:

192.36.253.96salesdept

If your system uses alias name data bases such as Yellow Pages (YP) or Network Information Services (NIS), update these using the commands below. If you intend to use the arp or bootp method, update the YP or NIS now. If you intend to use the rarp method, you must first update the node address table, see “The rarp method” (page 48).

Commands:

Note:

cd /var/yp make

These commands may vary between different systems. When in doubt, consult your system documentation for the proper commands.
