5.7.1 Assigning the IP Address with BOOTP Lite
Prior to running the Bootp Lite utility, obtain an EcoLAN 3000E Network Status Page
from your printer. The status page may be printed on demand by pressing the Status
key on the front panel of the printer. Check the network status page to be sure that
TCP/IP is enabled, and that an IP address has not already been assigned. Information
from the status page will be needed during the Bootp Lite setup procedure.
If the 3000E already has an IP address, the Bootp Lite utility will not work. The new
IP address should be assigned by connecting to the existing IP address with a web
browser (Chapter 3) or with Telnet (Chapter 8) or, if running IPX, by configuring with
MAP (Chapter 3).
The EcoLAN 3000E must be on the same network segment as the workstation that is
being used to configure it. The TCP/IP stack must be installed and operating on the
workstation. The BOOTP Lite program will not work in a Windows PC operating as a
DHCP Server.
Using the Bootp Lite Utility
There are two versions of the Bootp Lite utility, BOOTPL16.EXE and
BOOTPL32.EXE. Which version to use depends upon the particular TCP/IP protocol
stack in use. The BOOTPL16.EXE utility will work with a 16 bit TCP/IP stack (FTP,
NetManage, B&W, or Windows for Workgroups 3.11). The BOOTPL32.EXE utility
will work with a 32 bit TCP/IP stack (Windows 95/98 and Windows NT).
These utilities may be copied to your hard disk and run from there or they may be run
directly from the CD that is packaged with the 3000E as described in the following
directions.
1. Launch the utility. In the following directions, the CD ROM drive letter is
assumed to be D. Please substitute the appropriate letter if necessary for your
system.
• Windows for Workgroups 3.11 (or other 16 bit TCP/IP stacks), from Program
Manager under File, select Run, and type: D:\MAP\BOOTPL16.EXE.
• Windows NT 3.51, from Program Manager under File, select Run, and type:
D:\MAP\BOOTPL32.EXE.
• Windows 95/98 or Windows NT 4.0, click on the Start button, select Run, and
type: D:\MAP\BOOTPL32.EXE.
2. Select Configure from the Admin menu.
