10 - 11 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION
If you do not have any subnets, use one of the following default
subnet masks:
255.255.255.0
for class C networks
255.255.0.0
for class B networks
255.0.0.0
for class A networks
The leftmost group of digits in your IP address can identify the type
of network you have. The value of this group ranges from 192
through 255 for Class C networks (e.g., 192.189.207.3), 128 through
191 for Class B networks (e.g.,128.10.1.30), and 1 through 127 for
Class A networks (e.g., 13.27.7.1).
If you have a gateway (router), enter its address with the command
SET IP ROUTER routeraddress
, where
routeraddress
is the
desired IP address of the gateway you wish to assign to the print
server. For example:
Local> SET IP ROUTER 192.189.207.1
Type
SET IP METHOD STATIC
to set the method of IP access
configuration to static.
To verify that you have entered the IP information correctly, type
SHOW IP
.
Type
EXIT
or CTR-D (i.e., hold down the control key and type "D")
to end the remote console session.
Changing the IP Address Settings with the
TELNET Console
You can also use the TELNET command to change the IP address.
Using TELNET is effective way, when you change the IP address. But
a valid IP address must already be programmed into the print server.
If you are using the TELNET, you will be expected to enter the
password of the print server. Press RETURN and enter the default
password of
access
in response to the "#" prompt (it will not echo).
You will be prompted for a user name. Enter anything in response to
this prompt.
