ENWW TCP/IP Configuration 69
To use the route command, you will also need the IP address of your
workstation. To view it, you can enter the appropriate command at
the command prompt:
C:\> ipconfig (on Windows NT/2000/XP/Server 2003)
C:\> winipconfig (on Windows 98)
To create a route from the system command prompt, enter the
following command:
where <Jetdirect IP address> is the IP address configured on
the HP Jetdirect print server, and <system IP address> is the
IP address of the workstation's network card that is attached to the
same physical LAN as the print server.
For example, to create a route from your workstation with IP
address 169.254.2.1 to a print server with a default IP address of
192.0.0.192, try this command:
CAUTION Using Telnet to manually set an IP address will
override dynamic IP configuration (such as
BOOTP, DHCP, or RARP), resulting in a static
configuration. In a static configuration, the IP
values are fixed and the operation of BOOTP,
DHCP, RARP and other dynamic configuration
methods may no longer function.
Whenever you are manually changing an IP
address, you should also reconfigure the subnet
mask and default gateway at the same time.
route add <Jetdirect IP Address> <system IP Address>
route add 192.0.0.192 169.254.2.1
