BOOTP server access (BOOTPTAB file)

Bootfile (configuration file <name.cf2>)

Update process

1.Generate a test printout from the PrintServer by pressing the TEST key. (Ensure that no sessions are active.)

2.Edit the BOOTPTAB file for the PrintServer device address. Add the bootfile parameter, e.g. bf = /<pathname>/<filename> (remembering to use the forward slash for the path)

OS/2:

ida.tcp.network3.com: sm=255.255.255.0: bf=/tcpip/etc/myfile.cf2:\

gw=192.0.110.0: ht=eth: ha=00036E0004A9: ip=192.0.110.1:

AIX:

ida.tcp.network3.com: sm=255.255.255.0: bf=/etc/myfile.cf2:\

gw=192.0.110.0: ht=eth: ha=00036E0004A9: ip=192.0.110.1:

3.Edit either the configuration file or use the Telnet to change the microcode (Change or add the value for the microcode keyword parameter to indicate the new microcode, pathname, and file.)

NOTE:

Do NOT rename the microcode file(as the filename reflects the microcode version). If it does not have a file type, do not give it one. Renaming the file will cause the PrintServer to hang in a loop.

On AIX, you must ensure general read access to the microco de file (TFTP users have login "nobody").

The microcode filename has the fol lowing format and should not be changed:
