Solaris 2.6 – 7 Ethernet Setup

Solaris 2.6 – 7 Ethernet Setup

NOTE: Requires Superuser privilege in the borne shell. Assume that you can ping and Telnet to the adapter.

The IP address of the Ethernet adapter must be placed in the /etc/ hosts file.

Syntax:

lpadmin -p [queue_name] -v /dev/null

lpadmin -p [queue_name] -i /usr/lib/lp/model/ netstandard

lpadmin -p [queue_name] -o dest=[host_name] -o protocol=bsd -o timeout=60

lpadmin -p [queue_name] -s [host_name]!d1prn -I any

enable {queue_name]

accept [queue_name]

where

[queue _name] = any name, but not the name in the etc/hosts file or d1prn

[host_name] = name in etc/hosts file

Troubleshooting

This installation procedure assumes that the Ethernet adapter is configured with the correct IP address, subnet mask, and gateway (if required). You can also ping and telnet to the Ethernet adapter.

Print an E-Net Test Page to verify the Ethernet settings.

DIAGNOSTICS ￿Printer Tests ￿E-Net Test Page or Ethernet Test ￿Enter.

The default Ethernet queue name is d1prn, however, the name can be changed. To verify the queue name, print an E-net Test Page or telnet to the adapter and run a “list dest” command.

NOTE: Depending on the shell, preceed the ! character with a \ to avoid shell script errors.
