4-10 IP Address Assignment
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 MonarchNet 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 the
route has been set correctly.
♦ If the route is set correctly, try pinging the device.
♦ Verify the MonarchNet print server is on the same subnet as the host
from which you are telnetting. As a drastic measure, try creating an
isolated subnet with your host and the MonarchNet print server. If you are
using 10BASE2, run the cable directly from the host to the MonarchNet
print server. If using Twisted-pair cabling, connect the host to the
MonarchNet print server through a hub not connected to any other host.
♦ If the static route has been set up and can telnet to the MonarchNet print
server, but your changes do not seem to be saved, check the host’s
routing tables. You might have telneted to a different MonarchNet print
server than the one you intended. While in telnet, select the second menu
option, Show Network/Printer Information. The hardware address and
serial number are displayed. Verify they are the same as the unit you are
configuring.
♦ Turn off the MonarchNet print server you want to configure. Run telnet
again. If you reach a different device, there is an IP address conflict.
♦ If you are able to ping to the MonarchNet print server, but are unable to
telnet, the IP address is probably being shared with another device that
does not support telnet.
