IP Assignments for Initial Contact: Introduction

12. IP Assignments for Initial Contact

12.1. Introduction

You must change the IP address from the factory default (0.0.0.0). Additional IP settings that may need configuration are the Subnet Mask (default 255.255.255.0) and the Gateway address (default 0.0.0.0). Note that the Intermate1xx supports classless routing.

The methods available for setting the IP address vary depend- ing on how your LAN environment is administered. When we discuss choosing a method, we are talking about the adminis- tration, and not the print platforms you will be using.

In fact, some of these platforms, notably IBM Mainframes (such as S/390) and Mid-Range (such as AS/400) have no management facilities of this type. This is no cause for con- cern. Most LANs are administered from a Windows work sta- tion, an OS/2 work station or a work station running UNIX, AIX or Novell Netware.
