6-2 Windows NT/LAN/WARP Server Network Configuration

b. On NT V4.xx systems, click on the Protocols tab, select Add, and double

click on TCP/IP protocol. Insert the requested disk(s) to copy the required
files. Then click on the Services tab and double click on Microsoft TCP/IP
Printing
. Again insert the requested disk(s). Click on the Protocols tab
when then copying is finished.

Double click on the TCP/IP Protocol option and add the host IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway address. Consult your system manager for
these addresses. If you are not directly connected to the Internet, you may
assign any arbitrary Class C address of the form aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd, where
aaa is any number from 192 to 222, bbb and ccc are any number from 0 to
255, and ddd is any number from 0 to 254; for example, 192.189.207.3.
You may also use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 with no gateway
address. If you have more than one LAN adapter card, select the one you
want to use for TCP/IP.

If you have more than one LAN adapter card, select the one you want to
use with TCP/IP. Click OK twice to exit (you may need to restart the
system).

2. If you have not already configured the print server IP address, you will need to

do so now. The simplest way to do this with Windows NT 4.x is to use XAdmin-
32 as described in Chapter 3.
As an alternative, or if you have Windows NT 3.5x, you may go to the MS-DOS
Command Prompt and use the

a r p - s

command to enter the IP address into

the Monarch print server as shown in the following example:

a r p - s 1 9 2 . 1 8 9 . 2 0 7 . 7 7 0 0 - 4 0 - 1 7 - 0 0 - e d - d 6

p i n g 1 9 2 . 1 8 9 . 2 0 7 . 7 7

Again, substitute your actual IP address for

1 9 2 . 1 8 9 . 2 0 7 . 7 7

, and replace the

0 0 - 4 0 - 1 7 - 0 0 - e d - d 6

with the actual Ethernet hardware address of the print

server If you get the message "The arp entry addition failed: 3", try pinging a
known device on the network using the command

p i n g i p a d d r e s s

, where

ipaddress is the IP address of that device.

NOTE:

You must be on the same Ethernet segment (that is, there cannot
be a router between the print server and the Windows NT system)
to use the

a r p - s

command. If there is a router, you may use

BOOTP or other methods described in Chapter 4 to enter the IP
address. Also, this method only works the first time the print
server is configured. If the print server already has an IP
address, you may use TELNET to access it and change the IP
address using the

S E T I P A D D R E S S

command.

The print server has a default IP address of 192.0.0.192. You
must change this address to a unique value to avoid having
duplicate IP addresses.
