6.1.4 Setting Up IP and lpr Parameters
The NIC provides for a setup connection via the standard Telnet
port. To be able to make changes to a unit with factory default set-
tings, you must logon as
“sysadm”
. The default password is also
“sysadm”
(This password can be changed from the Telnet utility).
Section 6.3 Running Telnet, describes the use of the Telnet utility.
1. Telnet to the NIC (the login and password are both sysadm).
2. Turn off the protocols that you are not utilizing (option 3).
3. Setup the subnet mask and default gateway for the NIC if appli-
cable (option 1). (If you used BOOTP, this will already have
been done).
4. Exit, Save and Reset the NIC
You can also use the HTML pages accessible via MAP or a Web
Browser to setup lpr. The password to change parameters with the
Web pages is the same as the Telnet password.
