Sharp R3.1 manual Determine the Network Policy, Set up the Dhcp and DNS Servers

Page 9

Step 1: Determine the Network Policy

First, determine whether DHCP is used within your organization. If DHCP is used, some or all IP addresses are assigned dynamically. When using DHCP, “hostname” is the identifier used to specify PCs or Scanners. Sharp multifunction scanners require DNS to resolve the address from “hostname” to “IP address”.

Refer to the table below to determine the network policy of your organization.

Note: It is not recommended that “Full DHCP” and “Exception DHCP” policies be used. They require special knowledge in network configuration, including careful setup of the “NIC” in the scanner. If you so use these policies, please refer to the NIC manual to setup dynamic scanner addressing.

Step 2: Set up the DHCP and DNS Servers

If you are using the Regular, Full, or Exception DHCP policy, DHCP and DNS servers should be set up prior to installing the Network Scanner Tool. These servers maintain the table of dynamic addresses for PCs [2) and 3) above] and Scanners [3) and 4) above].

If you are using the Simple Addressing policy, DHCP and DNS servers are not required, and you may skip this step.

Step 3: Set up Scanner Network Parameters

If you are using DHCP and the PC addresses are dynamic [2) or 3) above], the addresses of the DNS servers must be set up using the scanner’s Web pages.

If the PC addresses are static [1) or 4) above], it’s recommended that you leave the addresses of the DNS servers blank in the scanner’s Web pages. Specifying information for DNS servers in the scanner’s Web Page that is incorrect may cause problems. It is better to leave these addresses blank and let the Network Scanner Tool determine the proper addresses automatically during its inspection of the scanners.
