Modifying Ip Addresses - Intermec 6400 User Manual

Troubleshooting Network Connections
" NOTE:
3-16 6400 Computer TCP/IP Client User's Guide
The inability to receive broadcast frames can result in
failed attempts to ping the 6400 TCP/IP client from a
server. The Proxy ARP Server feature in the 6710 Access
Point solves the problem of receiving ARP request
broadcast frames, but not the other types of broadcasts.
If you suspect that the inability to receive broadcast or
multicast frames may be the problem, try to temporarily
disable radio power management by doing the following:
2.4 GHz OpenAir radio: set INACTIVITY_SEC to 0
"
and INACTIVITY_MIN to 0 in NET.CFG
802.11 DS radio: disable Card_Power_Management
"
in NET.CFG
For more information about power management, see
Appendix B, Tuning the 6400 TCP/IP Client." For more
information about configuring the Proxy ARP Server, refer
to the 21XX Universal Access Point Technical Reference
067150
Manual (P/N
Guide (P/N 961 047 081).

Modifying IP Addresses

If you are unable to ping the access point or a host on the
wired LAN, you may have an IP addressing problem.
To check IP addressing:
Ensure your 6400 computer has an IP address.
"
The address can be set through the 6400 TCP/IP
client DOS configuration menus, manually set
through PCTCP.INI, or automatically obtained
through DHCP or Bootp.
For initial unit testing, it is best to explicitly set the IP address
through the 6400 TCP/IP client DOS configuration menus or
PCTCP.INI to eliminate the added complications due to
server-provided IP addresses through DHCP or Bootp.
