Figure 2-1. Add Reserved Clients Menu

6.Set the DIP switches to the telnet diagnostic monitor position as described in the hardware guide and reboot the print server. The system request an IP address from the DHCP Server. The server returns the reserved IP address.

Note: Values added to the “Unique Identifier” (Figure 2-1) must be entered correctly. This entry is the MAC address for FastPort. FastPort sends this MAC address in a request to the DHCP server for an IP address. If it is entered incorrectly, it will not match the value sent by FastPort. The DHCP server then assigns it any available IP address instead of the IP address reserved.

Note: If FastPort does not respond to the reserved IP address, print a test page. Verify the MAC address from the test page.

7.Do the following to set the IP address permanently:

a.Verify that FastPort is responding with the new IP address by pinging the IP address reserved. From a DOS prompt, type: ping xx.xx.xx.xx and press [return] (where xx.xx.xx.xx is the IP address reserved).

b.If ping is successful, type: telnet xx.xx.xx.xx 2002 and press [return] (where 2002 is the telnet diagnostic socket port address for FastPort).

c.The following displays (if the connection is successful):

Vers. 6.1.18, Datecode 10/23/1998 18:50

Type “S” to see current status

Type “D” to see current configuration

Type “!” to enter monitor

Type “A” to abort connection

d.Select [!] and press [return]

e.Select [I] and press [return]. Enter the IP address that was reserved by the DHCP Manager. This stores the IP address permanently in FastPort’s NVRAM.

f.Select the [R] command to reboot the FastPort.
