4-4 Chapter 4

When the ENSTALL utility begins, follow the instructions and supply the requested information. When the ENSTALL program is complete, the Emulex printer server is ready to use.

Manual Installation

IMPORTANT: This section contains advanced features. All parameters should be configured by the Network Administrator. Emulex recommends running the ENSTALL program instead of performing a manual installation.

To manually install the printer server on a UNIX network:

Assign the IP address using ARP, BootP, DHCP or RARP.

Configure the print queue environment.

ARP

NOTE: ARP, PING and RARP commands do not alter the subnet mask.

The ARP command offers a convenient means of assigning the printer server’s initial IP address. The IP address is stored in the printer server’s permanent and temporary memory. Although the ARP command is standard on all UNIX platforms, its syntax may vary from one system to another.

Change IP Address

The ARP command cannot be used to change a printer server’s existing IP address. To change an existing IP address, use telnet.

1)Logon to the printer server as supervisor.

2)Enter:

>Server>> define server IP IP_address

IP_address The desired IP address in decimal dot notation.

3)Reboot the printer server.
