Description

 

 

IP Configuration

Selects the method that the HP Jetdirect print server will use for

Method

 

its IP configuration parameters: BOOTP (default), DHCP,

 

 

Manual, or Auto IP.

 

 

For BOOTP or DHCP, the IP parameters will be automatically

 

 

configured by a BOOTP or DHCP server each time the print

 

 

server is powered on.

 

 

If you select Manual, then basic IP parameters can be manually

 

 

entered using this Web page, or using other available tools.

 

 

If you select Auto IP, then a unique link-local address 169.254.x.x

 

 

will be assigned.

 

 

For more information, see Chapter 3.

 

 

 

Host Name

 

Specifies a readable IP name (the SNMP SysName object) for

 

 

the network device. The name must start with a letter and can

 

 

end in a letter or number, up to 32 ASCII characters. The default

 

 

name is NPIxxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the LAN

 

 

hardware (MAC) address.

 

 

 

IP Address

 

Use this field to manually assign the Internet Protocol address on

 

 

the HP Jetdirect print server. The IP address is a four byte (32-bit)

 

 

address in the form "n.n.n.n", where 'n' is a number from 0 to 255.

 

 

An IP address uniquely identifies a node on a TCP/IP network.

 

 

Duplicate IP addresses on a TCP/IP network are not allowed. For

 

 

more information on IP addresses, see Appendix A.
