You can set the priority of how a device obtains IP addresses on the network, based on the best method for the network. The priority is determined by the order listed in the configuration precedence list. For example, if DHCP/BOOTP has precedence over DHCPv6, an IP address provided through DHCPv4 will have precedence over an IP address provided by DHCPv6.
You can set IPv6 DNS options, including the Domain, Primary DNS, and Secondary DNS. Following are steps to configure this option:
1.To enable support for
2.Select one of the DHCPv6 policy options:
●Always perform DHCPv6 at startup
●Perform DHCPv6 when stateless configuration is unsuccessful
●Perform DHCPv6 only when requested by the router
3.If you are configuring a single device and wish to enter a manual IPv6 address, select Manual and enter the appropriate information.
4.To specify the configuration precedence, highlight the method and then click Move Up or Move Down. To restore the default configuration scheme, click Reset. You must click Reset in order to set the precedence in a template, or with multiple devices selected.
5.You can specify a domain name for this device to be used in IPv6. The domain name does not include the device host name, and multiple devices may share the same domain name.
6.You can specify the Primary and Secondary DNS servers for the device to be used in IPv6. If the network uses Domain Name System (DNS) services, use this option to specify the IP address of a primary DNS server for this device. If a secondary DNS server is available on the network and can be configured on the device, specify the IP address of the secondary DNS server. A secondary DNS server is used when the primary DNS server is not available.
IPX - Ethernet Frame Type
This option lets you specify the Ethernet frame types that the HP Jetdirect print server uses on the network. If you select Auto, the HP Jetdirect print server tries all of the frame types until it finds the one that works. If you know that you are only going to use one frame type, selecting that frame type reduces network traffic.
To configure this feature, select one of the Ethernet frame type options:
●Auto
●Ethernet 802.3
●Ethernet II
●Ethernet 802.2
●Ethernet SNAP
IPX - Frame Type Token Ring
IPX protocol is supported by Novell NetWare network OS. This option lets you specify which encapsulation type for IPX to use for a token ring LAN or it can be set to let the device automatically decide which is best to use.
