1.4.4.About Configuring the “Basic” and “Permission” Sub- Groups

The chapters in this main section are organized according to configuration pages in the HTTP-based menu.

The HTTP-based menu is divided into four groups:

•Actions

•Configurations

•Status

•Help

Within the “Configurations” group on the menu, there are a number of sub-groups. Each sub-group has a number of con- figuration pages. Each chapter title in [Square Brackets] indi- cates a configuration page.

The order in which these pages are presented reflects a typical order for first time use. This may differ from the order on the HTTP menu, where the least frequently used pages are at the bottom of the “Configurations” group.

The “Basic” sub-group has three configuration pages

•“[TCP/IP]” [page 103]

Besides IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and host name (covered in Chapter 12), the [TCP/IP] page allows you to specify a WINS server to which this information will be sent. It also allows you to register the IP address of a DNS server on which the unit can look up the addresses of named servers on other configuration pages.

•“[General]” [page 106]

This configuration page includes a number of purely administrative parameters: What will you call the device, who is responsible for it and where it is located?

It also includes a parameter to designate the “System Target Printer”, which is where information about the system is printed; and there is a parameter defining whether or not front panel messages should be enabled on that printer.
