Section 4 - Chapter 6 - Telnet Configuration
Specify Print Server IP Address (Option 3)
This option allows you to select the method the OkiLAN 6120e uses to obtain its IP address or to set a permanent IP address. If the OkiLAN 6120e has been configured to use a permanent IP address, a DHCP, RARP or BOOTP server does not need to be available when the OkiLAN 6120e is powered on.
If you change the IP address, the change will remain undetected until the OkiLAN 6120e is reset or is powered off and on.
Remember, when choosing a permanent IP address:
•The IP address must follow the format XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where each XXX is a number between 0 and 255.
•If you select an invalid IP address you may not be able to access the OkiLAN 6120e.
•You can also use OkiNet for TCP/IP, OkiNet for NetWare or the Banyan VINES OkiNet for VINES utilities (may apply to other OkiLAN print server models) to set a permanent IP address.
Note: If you select an invalid IP address you may not be able to access the OkiLAN 6120e. Use this option with care!
Specify the Subnet Mask for Your Network (Option 4)
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 between 0 and 255.
The default subnet mask is 0.0.0.0. The OkiLAN 6120e interprets a subnet mask of 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255 as no subnet mask specified.
If you change the subnet mask, the change will remain undetected until the OkiLAN 6120e is reset or is power cycled.
