Solaris 2.6 – 7 NIC Setup

Solaris 2.6 – 7 NIC Setup

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

The IP address of the NIC 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 NIC adapter is configured with the correct IP address, subnet mask, and gateway (if required). You can also ping and telnet to the NIC adapter.

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