OKI OkiLAN 6020e User’s Guide
Subnet Mask
If your network environment includes subnets, you will
want to set the subnet mask. The subnet mask must
follow the format XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where each
XXX is a number from 0 to 255.
The default subnet mask is 0.0.0.0. The OkiLAN 6020e
interprets a subnet mask of 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255
as no subnet mask specified.
CAUTION: If you select an invalid subnet mask, you
may not be able to access the OkiLAN 6020e.
Default Gateway
If your local network is attached to other networks, you
can specify the address of your default gateway. This
gateway will be selected whenever messages need to be
sent to another network.
The gateway address must follow the format
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where each XXX is a number
from 0 to 255.
CAUTION: If you select an invalid default gateway or
the default gateway becomes unavailable, the OkiLAN
6020e may not be able to communicate with non-local
networks.
WINS Server
If you are using WINS name resolution, set the address
of the WINS Server where the System Name of the
OkiLAN 6020e will be registered.
Use DHCP to Locate WINS Server
If you are using DHCP for IP address resolution, select
this option to obtain the address of the WINS Server
from the DHCP Server.
