OKI OkiLAN 6010e User’s Guide
Static Route Entry
When the OkiLAN 6010e 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 6010e has not deter-
mined 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 6010e
product’s default IP address into the workstation’s
network routing table. To use the route command, you
must have Windows 95, Windows NT 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 6010e. 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 documenta-
tion for the route command.
