Using Telnet (Ipv4); Creating A Telnet Connection - HP 635n - JetDirect IPv6/IPsec Print Server Administrator's Manual

NOTE:
commands will be ignored. Once the IP address is configured, arp and ping cannot be used
unless the print server is reset to factory values (see
Server on page
On UNIX systems, the arp -s command may vary between different systems.
Some BSD-based systems expect the IP address (or host name) in reverse order. Other systems
may require additional parameters. See your system documentation for specific command
formats.

Using Telnet (IPv4)

This section describes how to configure the print server using Telnet.
NOTE:
device in which it is installed. For value-featured print servers, Telnet may not be supported.
Although a Telnet connection may be protected by an administrator password, Telnet connections are
not secure. For networks with high security levels, Telnet connections can be disabled on the print server
using other tools (for example, TFTP, embedded Web server, or HP Web Jetadmin software).

Creating a Telnet Connection

To use Telnet commands with the HP Jetdirect print server, a route must be available from your
workstation to the print server. If the print server and your computer have a similar IP address, that is,
the network portion of their IPv4 addresses match, chances are that a route will exist.
If their IPv4 addresses do not match, then you can either change your workstation's IPv4 address to
match, or you can try an operating system command to create a route to the print server. (For example,
if the print server is configured with a legacy default IP address 192.0.0.192, a route will not likely exist.)
On Windows systems, you can use the "route" command at a Windows command (DOS) prompt to
create a route to the print server.
For information on system command prompts, see your Windows online help. On Windows 2000/XP/
Server 2003 systems, it is in the Accessories folder in the Programs or All Programs folder.
To use the route command, you will also need the IPv4 address of your workstation. To view it, you can
enter the appropriate command at the command prompt:
C:\> ipconfig (on Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003)
To create a route from the system command prompt, enter the following command:
route add <Jetdirect IP Address> <system IP Address>
where <Jetdirect IP address> is the IP address configured on the HP Jetdirect print server, and
<system IP address> is the IP address of the workstation's network card that is attached to the
same physical LAN as the print server.
For example, to create a route from your workstation with IP address 169.254.2.1 to a print server with
a default IP address of 192.0.0.192, try this command:
route add 192.0.0.192 169.254.2.1

Once the IP address has been set on the print server, additional arp and ping

The support and use of Telnet depends on the print server product and the printer/MFP
