Communicating Across Routers

Communicating Across Routers

Since Windows environments rely on TCP/IP to communicate with the LineJet Print Server, crossing routers becomes an issue.

After following one of the LineJet Print Server configuration methods mentioned, you should be able to communicate only with the print server from the same subnet. This means any hosts across a router will not see your LineJet Print Server. In order for hosts across a router to see your LineJet Print Server, store a default router/gateway within the print server so that any packets destined for another subnet get forwarded to this router automatically. The router (or series of routers) can then take over ensuring the packets get to their final destination on another subnet on your network.

To configure a default router/gateway within the LineJet Print Server:

1.Load a Web browser on your Windows station and direct it to the URL http://LineJetIPaddress/networkConf.html

(e.g., http://192.75.11.9/networkConf.html).

Note

If prompted for a User ID and password first, type in root for the ID and

 

press ENTER at the password prompt since there is no password by

 

default.

 

 

2.At the Network Configuration HTML form that displays, click in the first field below the “Gateway” heading and type in the IP address of the default router/gateway for the LineJet Print Server subnet.

3.Click on the SUBMIT button when done and physically repower the print server to make the new settings take effect.

Changing Workgroup Names

Windows environments define groups of related computers as “workgroups.” By default, the LineJet Print Server belongs to the workgroup called WORKGROUP. However, you may want to change this to suit your network better. To do this:

1.Load a Web browser on your Windows station and direct it to the URL http://LineJetIPaddress/networkConf.html

(e.g., http://192.75.11.9/networkConf.html).

Note

If prompted for a User ID and password first, type in root for the ID and

 

press ENTER at the password prompt since there is no password by

 

default.

 

 

2.At the Network Configuration HTML form that displays, search for the “Windows (NetBIOS TCP/IP)” section and highlight the “Workgroup Name” field.

3.Type in the new workgroup name for the LineJet Print Server.

4.Click on the SUBMIT button when done and physically repower the print server to make the new settings take effect.
