AXIS 700 User’s Manual

Notes:
The
arp -s
command may vary between different systems. Some
BSD-type systems expect the host name and Ethernet address in
reverse order. IBM AIX systems require the additional argument
ether
for Ethernet networks, e.g.
arp -s ether spserv
00:40:8c:11:00:86 temp
Once the AXIS 700 has established communications using an
appropriate Internet address, the
arp/ping
commands cannot be
used to change the address. The reason is to avoid accidental or
unauthorized change of the Internet address. Restart the AXIS
700 to make it accept the setting. You can perform a restart
remotely via the AXIS 700 web interface. See “Specifying System
Settings ”on page 36.
When you execute the
ping
command for the first time, the
response time may be significantly longer than usual.
Using RARP
in UNIX
Follow these steps to download the Internet address using the RARP
method:
1. Append the following line to your Ethernet address table. This is
typically performed by editing the file
/etc/ethers
.
Example:
2. If necessary, update your host table and alias name databases as
required by your system.
3. Start the RARP daemon, if it is not already running. This is typically
performed using the command
rarpd -a
4. Restart the AXIS 700 to download the Internet address. You can
perform a restart remotely via the AXIS 700 web interface. See
“Specifying System Settings ”on page 36.
