Before You Start
1. Install the OkiLAN 6100e+ hardware and connect
the cabling. Instructions for hardware installation are
found in Section I of this manual.
2. Write down the serial number and Ethernet address
of the OkiLAN 6100e+.
3. Copy the files from the CD-ROM to a utilities folder
on the Macintosh hard drive.
4. Consult your network administrator before using the
OkiLAN 6100e+ utility. Changing the OkiLAN
6100e+ Name or Zone may require users to reselect
the OkiLAN 6100e+ in the Chooser. Print servers
and spoolers may also need to be reconfigured after
the OkiLAN 6100e+ product’s configuration has
been changed.
