HP J7949E manual TCP/IP Settings 1, Manual, or Auto IP

TCP/IP

The TCP/IP page provides configuration parameters summarized in Table 4.1.

Table 4.1	TCP/IP Settings (1 of 3)
Item		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.
Subnet Mask		If subnetting is used, use this field to manually assign a subnet
		mask. A subnet mask is a 32-bit number that, when applied to an
		IP address, determines which bits specify the network and
		subnet, and which bits uniquely specify the node.
		For more information on subnet masks, see Appendix A.
Default Gateway		Identifies the IP address of a router or computer that is used to
		connect to other networks or subnetworks.
Domain Name		Specifies the name of the Domain Name System (DNS) domain
		that the HP Jetdirect print server resides in (for example,
		support.hp.com). It does not include the host name; it is not the
		Fully Qualified Domain Name (such as printer1.support.hp.com).
