Static Route Entry
If the Network Print Server 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 that the route has been set cor-
rectly.
• If the route is set correctly, try pinging the device.
• Verify that the Network Print Server is on the same
subnet as the host from which you are telneting. As
a drastic measure, try creating an isolated subnet
with your host and the Network Print Server. If you
are using 10BASE2, run the cable directly from the
host to the Network Print Server. If using 10/
100BASE-T cabling, connect the host to the Net-
work Print Server through a hub not connected to
any other host.
• If the static route has been set up and can telnet to
the Network Print Server, but your changes do not
seem to be saved, check the host’s routing tables.
You might have telneted to a different Network
Print Server than the one you intended. While in
telnet, select the second menu option, Show Net-
work/Printer Information. The hardware address
and serial number are displayed. Verify that they
are the same as the unit you are configuring.
• Turn off the Network Print Server you want to con-
figure. Run telnet again. If you reach a different
device, there is an IP address conflict.
