Miscellaneous Commands Miscellaneous Commands These commands do not fall under any specific section of the command shell, but they are used quite frequently. save [default] Save the current settings to flash memory so they are available after power cycles. Sysinfo, destination, model, logpath, variable, user, and I/O port settings will be saved.
Page 282 Chapter 15 Complete Command List start fox|tts|loopb prn example: start fox prn Begin a debugging test on one of the I/O ports on the Ethernet Interface. The tests available are: A continuous stream of text sent to the attached printer. This is a good test for troubleshooting hardware as long as the attached printer supports text output.
Page 283 Miscellaneous Commands ping [-s] hostIPaddress [datasize [packetnumber]] example: ping 192.75.11.30 another TCP/IP host specified by hostIPaddress on ping the Ethernet Interface network. datasize is the datagram packet size which defaults to 64 bytes if no size is included in the syntax and packetnumber is the number of requests to be sent.

Page 285: Extra Features
Extra Features Ethernet Interface Security There are TCP access lists available to restrict host connections with the device. Users And Passwords The Ethernet Interface supports two user types: Access to everything within the print server root including all configurable settings. Ability to list settings only.
Page 286 Chapter 16 Ethernet Interface Security To use the HTML forms on the Smart Ethernet Interface: SMART 1. Direct your Web browser to URL: http://EthernetInterfaceIPaddress/ adminConf.html (e.g., http://192.75.11.9/adminConf.html). NOTE: If prompted for a “User ID” and password first, type root for the user ID and press ENTER at the password prompt (since there is no password by default).
Page 287: Tcp Access Lists
TCP Access Lists TCP Access Lists Within TCP/IP environments, the Ethernet Interface can restrict host access to destinations/queues and remote command (e.g., rsh, rcmd, remsh, and telnet) execution services. This is done using an access list similar in function to the Unix .rhosts file. NOTE: Access list settings are not configurable through the HTML forms provided with the Ethernet Interface.
Page 288: Printer Monitoring And Logging
Chapter 16 Printer Monitoring And Logging Example: store tcpip tcp access add 192.75.11.25 store tcpip tcp access add 192.75.12.0 store tcpip tcp access del 192.75.11.25 reset NOTE: Although the maximum number of entries in the access list is 10, each entry can refer to a network rather than a specific host.
Page 289: Printer Logging Through Logpaths
Printer Logging Through Logpaths Table 9. Key Printer Logging Terms Term Description idle There is no job queued for the Ethernet Interface I/O port. blocked The printer is not allowing the Ethernet Interface to send data to it. Check that there is not a printer error and it is online and ready to go.
Page 290 Chapter 16 Printer Monitoring And Logging To view the current logpath settings on the Ethernet Interface using the Ethernet Interface internal command shell, npsh: 1. Telnet to the Ethernet Interface, and log in as root with no password. 2. At the system prompt, enter the command to list the logpath settings: list logpath NOTE: If prompted for a “User ID”...
Page 291: Ethernet Interface Naming Schemes
Ethernet Interface Naming Schemes Printer Logging Through Logpaths Ethernet Interface Naming Schemes A single I/O Port destination can be configured with a variety of model and logpath combinations. For instance, once you set the parameters for m1 and l1, you can assign the model and logpath to more than one I/O port destination such as d1prn, d2prn, and d8prn.
