    To troubleshoot an IBM OS2 Network: Check all IP Addresses and verify that you have set the printer address correctly at the copier/printer Control Panel. Go to a connected workstation and use the ping command to determine if your server responds. If the server does not respond, you may have an addressing or network problem.

  • Page 135 Subnet Mask There are approximately 4.3 billion different addresses in the IP Address range of 000.000.000.000 to 255.255.255.255. These addresses can be divided into smaller, and much more manageable, subnetworks, or subnets. The Subnet Mask identifies which part of the IP Address contains the Subnet Address and which part contains the host (or device) address.
