OKI 6020E Manual De Usuario

IV - 11

When the OkiLAN 6020e is powered on or reset and
no permanent IP address has been assigned, it will
attempt to obtain an IP address through Gleaning,
RARP, BOOTP or DHCP. If the OkiLAN 6020e has not
determined its IP address after two minutes, the IP
address will default to 198.102.102.254. This IP
address should only be used temporarily to configure a
new, permanent IP address. To change to a permanent
IP address, the route add command is used to place the
OkiLAN 6020e product’s default IP address into the
workstation’s network routing table. To use the route
command, you must have Windows 95/98, Windows
NT/2000 or super-user privileges under UNIX. The
syntax for this command is:

Note: The zero (0) placed at the end of the route add

command shown above is optional.

The Static Route method only works if the host from
which you are telneting is on the same subnet as the
OkiLAN 6020e. Once the route add command has been
issued, telnet will allow you to change and/or make the
IP address permanent. After changing the IP address to
its permanent address, the routing table entry should be
deleted using route delete.

For more information, consult your system
documentation for the route command.

If an IP address has not been permanently assigned, the
OkiLAN 6020e will use Reverse Address Resolution
Protocol (RARP) or Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP). The
OkiLAN 6020e will broadcast requests for its IP
address to both RARP and BOOTP servers. A RARP or
BOOTP server will respond by searching a
configuration file that maps the Ethernet hardware
addresses of devices on the network to their respective
IP addresses. If a match is found, the server’s response
will include the IP address of the device.
