5. NetWare Network
5.1 System Architecture
We implemented NetWare printer sharing functionality into the print server
itself, thus allowing one or more printers attached by a print server to be
connected to the network. We have developed the print server to support
NetWare print server.
Embedded print server, which emulates the “queue management
functionality” of NetWare print server, PSERVER program running on
the NetWare server. A user first prints a job at a workstation, the job is
routed to a NetWare server, the NetWare server stores the job in a print
queue and then the print server gets the print job from the queue to
printers.

Compare with NetWare printing functionality, the advantages of
embedding the NetWare network printing functionality in the print server
include:
zInstallation is easier and quicker.
zNetwork management is easier.
zPrinting performance is enhanced.
zRelieve NetWare file server’s burden.

6. UNIX System Network
6.1 Introduction
The print server is available for TCP/IP printing by Unix LPD (Line Printer
Daemon) protocol. The LPD protocol originated with Unix release is based
on the BSD version of Unix and supported under most versions of Unix.
This chapter explains how to configure the print server for TCP/IP
operation, and how to modify configuration files on your Unix system to
allow printing to the print server. The configuration examples in this
manual follow the syntax for BSD based Unix systems. Please refer to the
related system documentation for the correct syntax of your systems.
To configure the print server for LPD printing, perform the procedures
below:
1. Enable Print Server’s TCP/IP Support.
2. Set up Print Server’s IP address.
3. Verify Print Server’s IP Address.
4. Configure remote LPD printing on the host.
5. Print a test page.
In the next sections, we will describe these five procedures step by step.
6.2 Enable Print Server’s TCP/IP Support
The default configuration of the print server is with TCP/IP support
enabled. Anyway, you can configure the print server to enable TCP/IP
support using the configuration program.
43
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
6.3 Setup Print Server’s IP Address
The print server must have a unique IP address in order to be recognized
by the network.
You can set up the IP address on the various Unix systems using any one
of the following methods:
1. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
2. BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol)
The print server will use the last three methods to obtain its IP address
automatically if its IP address is configured as Auto (0.0.0.0).
6.3.1 DHCP
There are many Unix systems that support DHCP protocol, and the
procedures to configure the DHCP server database are different. This
manual does not describe the DHCP server configuration on the Unix
systems. It is highly recommended that the DHCP server should be
located on the same network as the print server.
6.3.2 BOOTP
If you have the BOOTP daemon, bootpd, running on your UNIX system
that is accessible by the print server, you can use the BOOTP protocol to
set up the IP address of the print server. We recommend that the BOOTP
server should be located on the same subnet as the print server. If you
use Network Information Services (NIS) in your system, you may need to
rebuild the NIS map with the BOOTP services before doing the following
BOOTP configuration. To rebuild the NIS map, please refer to your
system documentation.
To configure the IP address data for the BOOTP server, you will need to
log in the host of BOOTP server as the superuser (root). Perform the
following steps to add address entries,
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the print server’s IP
address. You can add this address to the /etc/hosts file, by adding a
line such as:
203.66.191.12
pserver
44
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
2. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/bootptab file, similar to the following:
hostname:\
:ht=1:\
:ha=print_server_ethernet_address:\
:ip=print_server_ip_address:
Lines should be indented with tabs.
Where hostname is the device name of a print server, the ht=1 tag
specifies the hardware type is Ethernet, the ha= tag specifies the Ethernet
address of a print server, which is the Node ID located on the print server.
The ha tag must be preceded by the ht tag. The ip= tag should
correspond to the IP address you want to assign to the print server.
For example, a print server with the following configuration:
Node ID: 0000B4010101 (this implies Ethernet
address is 0000B4010101),
IP address: 203.66.191.12
The entry for this print server in the /etc/bootptab file should be:
PS010101:\
:ht=1:\
:ha=0000B4010101:\
:ip=203.66.191.12:
6.4 Verify Print Server’s IP Address
To verify that your print server is responding to the newly assigned IP
address using a PING command:
ping ip-address

6.5 Configure Remote LPD Printing on the
Host
The procedure you use to configure your Unix host(s) to allow printing to
your network remote print server varies between different varieties of Unix.
The procedure below can be used for Unix variants that are related to
BSD Unix, such as SunOS or Linux. For other versions of Unix, consult
your system documentation, keeping in mind that:
1. The print server should be treated as a BSD networked print server
host.
2. The host name should be the name (or IP address) that you have
assigned to the print server.
3. The printer name (or queue name) on the remote host should be lpt1,
lpt2 or lpt3, the name of the printer port on the print server.
You will need to perform the tasks below, logged in as the superuser
(root). To configure your Unix host for printing,
1. Optionally, assign a name corresponding to the print server’s IP
address. You can add this address to the /etc/hosts file, by adding a
line such as:
203.66.191.186
pserver
2. Create a spool directory for the printer in the same directory where
spool directories are normally kept on the machine, such as /var/spool
or /var/spool/lpd:
mkdir /var/spool/lpd/pserverd
chown daemon /var/spool/lpd/pserverd
chgrp daemon /var/spool/lpd/pserverd
chmod 775 /var/spool/lpd/pserverd
3. Add an entry to the host’s /etc/printcap file, similar to the following:
printer-name:\
46
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
:lp=:\
:rm=203.66.191.186:\
:rp=lpt1:\
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd.log:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/pserverd:\
:mx#0:
Lines should be indented with tabs. More than one printer name can be
used, with variants separated by vertical bars (name1|name2).
The rm= entry should correspond to the IP address you have assigned to
the print server. You can also use a host name if you have assigned one
in the /etc/hosts file.
The sd= entry should correspond to the spool directory you created in the
previous step.
The rp= entry should correspond to the port name of the remote printer.
The values should be one of lpt1, lpt2 or lpt3 depends on the printer port.
The print server should now be available for printing from your Unix host.

select the advanced encryption methods, i.e. TKIP or AES and enter a set
of shared key.
zTKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the
temporal key every 10,000 packets. This insures much greater
security than the standard WEP security.
zAES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of
security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most
advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the
wireless network.
zShared Key – Enter 8 to 63 digits of ASCII format to be the key for
the authentication within the network.

select “WEP”. If you want to use WPA-PSK, you have to select “WPA-
shared key”. The wireless security setting should be the same with other
wireless devices in the same network.
WEP Security Mode:
zKey Length – You can choose “64-bit” to use WEP with 64-bit key
length encryption or choose “128-bit” to use WEP with 128-bit key
length encryption. The longer key length can provide better
security but worse transmission throughput.
zKey Format – You may select to use ASCII Characters
(alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal digits (in the "A-F", "a-f"
and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key.
zPass Phrase – A pass phrase simplifies the WEP encryption
process by automatically generating the WEP encryption keys for
the print server.
zDefault Key – Select one of the four keys to encrypt your data.
Only the key you select it in the “Default key” will take effect.
85
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
zKey 1 – Key 4 – The WEP keys are used to encrypt data
transmitted within the wireless network. Fill the text box by
following the rules below.
64-bit WEP: input 10-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9"
range) or 5-digit ASCII character as the encryption keys. For
example: “0123456aef“ or “Guest“.
128-bit WEP: input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9"
range) or 10-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys. For
example: “01234567890123456789abcdef“or “administrator“.
WPA-shared key Security Mode:
When “WPA-shared key”, also named “WPA-PSK” requires users to
select one of the advanced encryption methods, i.e. TKIP or AES and
enter a set of shared key.
zTKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the
temporal key every 10,000 packets. This insures much greater
security than the standard WEP security.
86
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
zAES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of
security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most
advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the
wireless network.
zPre-shared Key Format – Select “Pass phrase” or “Hex” key
format. If “Pass phrase” is selected, please enter 8 to 63 digits of
ASCII format to be the key for the authentication within the network.
If “Hex” is selected, please enter 64 digits of Hex code which
should be “0-9” and “A-F”.
zPre-Shared Key – The “Pre-Shared Key” is different from the
key format selection. Please see above description.

10. IPP Printing
10.1 Introduction
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) Printing provides a convenient way of
remote printing service by TCP/IP. The print server can support IPP
printing by default. It is needless to do any setting. Any PC that can
support IPP printing, for example Windows 2000/XP, can directly uses the
print server by IP. By using the IPP printing, you can share the printer to
all the PC’s that can access the print server by IP. You can even share
your printer to Internet users.
10.2 System Setup
10.2.1 Print Server Side
It is needless to do any setting on the print server side. Make sure the
print server has correct IP settings. If you want to share the printers to
Internet users, you have to set a real IP to the print server. You also have
to make sure that any gateway; router or firewall does not block IPP
protocol if you have these gateway devices installed in your network.
