Interface network connectors The RJ 45 connector connects to a 10Base T twisted pair cable network If you use an appropriate external transceiver module the AUI connector allows you to connect to a 10Base2 thin coax 10Base5 thick coax or fiber optic network Introduction 2 Introduction Note The 50 pin SCSI 2 header typically for SCSI ribbon cable supports up to 7 CD ROM drives or up to 56 discs if disc changers are used The CD ROM tower module is designed for installation into a CD ROM tower How They Work HP CD ROM Servers connect as nodes on an Ethernet network An HP CD ROM Server acts as a network file server This means that it is independent of other file servers a network client communicates directly with the CD ROM server This results in high performance and reliability Installation and configuration is easy In most environments the network connection is the only installation required prior to using the HP CD ROM Server There is no software that must be installed on clients or file servers Your computer will see the HP CD ROM Server simply as another network file server and you access it through standard network operating system commands The HP CD ROM Server also supports the HTTP protocol Therefore you can access and manage the CD ROM server through a standard Web browser such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer For Windows 95 or NT 4

8. manuals The IP address can be sent to the CD ROM server in several ways depending on your network operating system There are two manual methods e Editing the config ini file for the CD ROM server This requires that you already have network access to the CD ROM server see chapter 5 e Using ARP Address Resolution Protocol On supported systems Windows NT and UNIX this the easiest method However it requires that the IP address is sent to each new device individually The protocol is not routable that is the workstation from which the configuration is made must be located on the same network segment as the CD ROM server There are three automated methods RARP BOOTP and DHCP The main characteristics for each method are e RARP Reverse Address Resolution Protocol downloads the IP address to each device automatically It requires a RARP daemon on your system RARP operates within a single network segment only e BOOTP Bootstrap Protocol is similar to RARP but operates on the entire network It requires a bootp daemon on your system e DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol allows for the automatic but temporary assignment of IP addresses from a predefined pool of addresses In the absence of either an active RARP or BOOTP daemon running on the host DHCP will when enabled cause the selected host to automatically allocate and download a free IP address Default Gateway Router address and subnet
