Section 4 - Chapter 2 - Configuring the OkiLAN 6100e
To use Gleaning, you must have Windows 95/98, Windows NT/2000, or
1.Add an entry in the ARP table that assigns an IP address to the hardware address of the OkiLAN 6100e+. To do this, use the arp command.
arp
UNIX Example:
arp
Windows95/98,WindowsNT/2000Example: arp
2. Start a continuous ping to the OkiLAN 6100e+.
ping <ip_address>
Example: ping 192.168.42.24
On some systems, this may require an additional parameter. Some implementations of ping only send out one ping packet which could get lost in transit. Check your system documentation for more information.
3.Connect power to the OkiLAN 6100e+.
The OkiLAN 6100e+ will glean its IP address from the ping packet. This IP address will remain in effect until the OkiLAN 6100e+ is powered off or reset. Therefore, a permanent IP address should be assigned by running the OkiNet for TCP/IP utility or via telnet.
Note: Gleaning does not work with Windows NT Workstation 3.5.
