Description

NOTE: Some Internet service providers (ISPs) require that you register the MAC address of the Network Card or LAN Adapter that was connected to your cable or DSL modem during installation.

This address uniquely identifies the device on the network. IP addresses are assigned dynamically through DHCP or AutoIP. You can also set up a static IP address, though this is not recommended.

CAUTION: Be careful when manually assigning an IP address. An invalid IP address during installation will prevent your network components from seeing the HP All-in-One.

A subnet is an IP address assigned by the installation software to make an additional network available as part of a larger network. Subnets are specified by a subnet mask. This mask determines which of the HP All-in-One IP address bits identify the network and subnet, and which bits identify the device itself.

NOTE: It is recommended that the HP All-in-One and the computers that use it all reside on the same subnet.

A node on a network that serves as an entrance to another network. A node in this instance can be a computer or some other device.

NOTE: The address of the default gateway is assigned by the installation software, unless you have already set a manual IP address.

The protocol used to assign the IP address to the HP All-in-One:

AutoIP: The installation software automatically determines the configuration parameters.

DHCP: The configuration parameters are supplied by a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server on the network. On small networks, this could be a router.

Manual: The configuration parameters are set manually, such as a static IP address.

Not Specified: The mode used when the HP All-in-One is initializing.

The IP address of the domain name service (DNS) for the network. When you use the web or send an e-mail message, you use a domain name to do it. For example, the URL http://www.hp.com contains the domain name hp.com. The DNS on the Internet translates the domain name into an IP address. Devices use the IP addresses to refer to one another.

IP Address: The IP address of the domain name server.

Not Specified: The IP address is not specified, or the device is initializing.

NOTE: Check to see if a DNS IP address appears on the network configuration page. If no address is shown, obtain the DNS IP address from your Internet service provider (ISP).

The speed at which data is transmitted over a network. Speeds include 10TX- Full, 10TX-Half, 100TX-Full, and 100TX-Half. When set to None, networking is disabled.

The number of packets transmitted by the HP All-in-One without error since it has been turned on. The counter clears after the HP All-in-One is turned off. When a message is transmitted over a packet-switching network, it is
