Oki 6100E+ manual Configuring the Discovery UDP Port Number, Starting a Telnet Session

Section 4 - Chapter 4 - OkiNet for TCP/IP

Configuring the Discovery UDP Port Number

In order to discover OkiLAN 6100e+ print servers on the network, OkiNet for TCP/IP communicates with the OkiLAN 6100e+ print servers on a UDP port number. Normally, using this port number should not interfere with other devices on the network. If there are problems using the given port number, select a new number.

Note: Windows NT will not permit the use of Port 9 for discovery. Select one of the other available ports.

Starting a Telnet Session

A simple telnet interface has been provided to communicate with devices supporting telnet. A telnet session can be started by selecting the OkiLAN 6100e+ from the print server list and choosing the Telnet Session option from the Tools menu. For more information about how to configure an OkiLAN 6100e+ using telnet, see Chapter 6.

Starting the BOOTP Server

OKI has provided a stand-alone BOOTP server to help assign IP addresses to the OkiLAN 6100e+.

To access the stand-alone BOOTP server, select BOOTP Server from the Tools menu or run the program bootpsrv.exe from Windows. The BOOTP server displays all BOOTP activity on the local network. It responds to BOOTP requests for which the hardware address has been entered into the BOOTP file. For more information, view the on-line help for the BOOTP server.
