OKI OkiLAN 6010e User’s Guide
• Some BOOTP servers will write their
internal bootptab tables to a file when they
receive a SIGUSR1 signal. You can check
this file to verify the hardware and IP ad-
dress are correct. You can use the kill com-
mand to send signals. For example,
kill –USR1 <process id of bootpd>. Check
your documentation for more information.
• Check the system’s syslog file. Some
BOOTP servers will write error messages
into the syslog file.
Example:
Sep 6 14:38:43 bootpd[17565]: hardware
address not found:
004068175042
This message appears when the BOOTP
server received a request from a device not
in its internal bootptab tables.
Static Route Entry
If the OkiLAN 6010e has printed a configuration page
showing the default address, but it cannot be reached
through telnet, check the following:
• Display the host’s routing tables with the
‘netstat –r’ command. Verify the route has
been set correctly.
• If the route is set correctly, try pinging the
device.
