Setting The NIC Context (NDS)

Setting The NIC Context (NDS)

The NIC allows you to store the print server object in any context within the NDS tree you choose. By default, the NIC will look for the print server object in the same context as the file server object it connects to is stored in.

HTML Method

1.Load a Web browser on a network station that can communicate with the print server over TCP/IP.

2.Direct your Web browser to URL:

http://P5000LJIPaddress/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.

 

 

3.Look under the “Novell” section and enter the new context in the “NDS Context” field.

4.Click on the SUBMIT button when done and physically re-power the printer to make the new settings take effect.

Manual (Telnet) Method

1.Telnet to the print server. This will bring up a login screen: telnet ipaddress

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.
