Hi,
I've a computer connected to a router with ethernet
I've a printer connected to the same router with ethernet also
I have renamed the interface on the computer from ethX to something else because
the ehtX name is not consistant from session to session (I get sometimes eth0
and sometimes eth2)
For that I use "nameif" in my /etc/network/interfaces :
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto livebox
iface livebox inet static
address 192.168.x.xx
netmask 255.255.255.0
pre-up nameif livebox 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xxa
up route add default gw 192.168.x.x
With this setup, the printer is not discovered by cups.
The following command (find from the help) returns nothing:
CUPS_DEBUG_LEVEL=2 /usr/lib/cups/backend/snmp 2>&1 | tee snmp.log
snmpwalk find the printer.
If I use eth2, the printer is normally found.
regards
Jean-Luc
