Re: re-IPL necessary

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jim, on the console, if it is the direct serial connection, it insists on 
addresses in the 192.168.0.0 subnet (or 192.168.1.0). If your console PC is 
on a subnet of that address throught its network card, it will not log on.
