Changing the IP Address settings with the Remote Console
a If you are using the remote console, such as 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).
b You will be prompted for a user name. Enter anything in response to this prompt.
c You will then get the
Local>
prompt. Type
SET IP ADDRESS ipaddress
,
where
ipaddress
is the desired IP address you wish to assign to the print server (check
with your network manager for the IP address to use). For example:
Local> SET IP ADDRESS 192.189.207.3
d You will now need to set the subnet mask by typing
SET IP SUBNET subnet
mask
, where
subnet mask
is the desired subnet mask you wish to assign to the print
server (check with your network manager for the subnet mask to use). For example:
Local> SET IP SUBNET 255.255.255.0
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
e 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).
f 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
g To verify that you have entered the IP information correctly, type
SHOW IP
.
H Type
EXIT
or CTR-D (i.e., hold down the control key and type “D”) to end the
remote console session.
