12 Setting Up IP Parameters

Assigning IP Addresses Using ARP (For UNIX)

1On a computer associated with the same network segment as the Dig- ital Copier, log on as root.

2Type the command shown below.

arp -s<IP address assigned to Network Card> <MAC address>

Example:

Network Card MAC Address: 00:20:6b:aa:bb:cc

IP Address: 192.9.200.200

arp -s 192.9.200.200 00:20:6b:aa:bb:cc

This stores the MAC address and IP address data in the cache.

3Next, type the command shown below.

ping <IP address assigned to Network Card>

Example:

IP address assigned to Network Card: 192.9.200.200 ping 192.9.200.200

This command sends the IP address to the Network Card. A timeout message is returned until the Network Card recognizes this IP address and restarts.

4The Network Card waits for auto reset. Otherwise, restart the Digital Copier.

5After the Network Card restarts, input the command from step 3 again. ping <IP address assigned to Network Card>

Example:

IP Address: 192.9.200.200 ping 192.9.200.200

The following response is returned when the IP address is assigned.

192.9.200.200 is alive

6When assignment is complete, type the command below to delete the arp cache entry.

arp -d<IP address assigned to Network Card>

Example:

IP Address Assigned to Network Card: 192.9.200.200 arp -d 192.9.200.200
