SLP

Service Location Protocol (SLP) is an Internet standard network protocol that provides a framework to allow networking applications to discover the existence, location, and configuration of networked services in enterprise networks, such as printers, Web servers, fax machines, video cameras, file systems, backup devices (tape drives), databases, directories, mail servers, and calendars.

In order to locate services on the network, users of network applications are required to supply the host name or network address of the device that supplies a desired service. However, SLP eliminates the need for a user to know the name of a network host supporting a service. Rather, the user only needs to supply the desired type of service and set of attributes or keywords, which describe the service.

Based on that description, SLP also resolves the network address of the service of the user. Administrators do not need to help clients find new services or to remove services when they are no longer available. SLP uses multicasting and can work over subnet boundaries.

Configuring SLP

You can configure SLP protocol settings through Embedded Web Service. Go to Printer Server Settings Print Server Settings SLP.
