ENWW TCP/IP Configuration 73
7. Edit the /etc/ethers file (/etc/rarpd.conf file in
HP-UX 10.20) to add the LAN hardware address/station
address (from the configuration page) and the node name
for the HP Jetdirect print server. For example:
00:01:E6:a8:b0:00 laserjet1
Note If your system uses Network Information Service
(NIS), you need to incorporate changes to the NIS
host and ethers databases.
8. Turn the printer on.

use the ping utility. At the prompt, type:
ping <IP address>
where <IP address> is the assigned address from RARP.
10. If ping does not respond, see Chapter 8
