Section 4 - Chapter 2 - Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e Static Route Entry When the OkiLAN 6020e is powered on or reset and no permanent IP address has been assigned, it will attempt to obtain an IP address through Gleaning, RARP, BOOTP or DHCP. If the OkiLAN 6020e has not determined its IP address after two minutes, the IP address will default to 198.102.102.254. This IP address should only be used temporarily to configure a new, permanent IP address. To change to a permanent IP address, the route add command is used to place the OkiLAN 6020e product's default IP address into the workstation's network routing table. To use the route command, you must have Windows 95/98, Windows NT/2000 or super-user privileges under UNIX. The syntax for this command is: route add 198.102.102.254 "IP address of the workstation" 0 Note: The zero (0) placed at the end of the route add command shown above is optional. The Static Route method only works if the host from which you are telneting is on the same subnet as the OkiLAN 6020e. Once the route add command has been issued, telnet will allow you to change and/or make the IP address permanent. After changing the IP address to its permanent address, the routing table entry should be deleted using route delete. For more information, consult your system documentation for the route command. RARP or BOOTP If an IP address has not been permanently assigned, the OkiLAN 6020e will use Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (RARP) or Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP). The OkiLAN 6020e will broadcast requests for its IP address to both RARP and BOOTP servers. A RARP or BOOTP server will respond by searching a configuration file that maps the Ethernet hardware addresses of devices on the network to their respective IP addresses. If a match is found, the server's response will include the IP address of the device. OKI OkiLAN 6020e User's Guide IV - 11 TCP/IP
