Management and Configuration

Editing the config file Follow the instructions below to edit the config file using FTP:

1. Log in to the Axis Network Print Server by typing:

ftp <host name> or ftp <IP address> in a DOS window (Windows) or in a UNIX shell.

2.Enter the user id and the password. (The default entries are root and pass.)

3.Download the config file to your host by typing:

get config

4.Edit the file using your preferred text editor.

5.Save the config file to the Axis Network Print Server by typing:

put config CONFIG

Notes:

It is important that the destination file is specified in capital letters. Otherwise the edits are temporary and will be lost once the Axis Network Print Server has been powered off.

To edit the config file from a Macintosh you will need FTP support such as MacTCP, Fetch or Anarchie. The procedure for editing the file is the same as described above.

The example below describes how to upload and download the config file using FTP from a DOS window.

Example:

>ftp npserver connected to npserver.
