Samsung CLX-6250 manual Network setup, Network environment, Introducing useful network programs

network setup

This chapter gives you step-by-step instructions for setting up the network connected machine and software.

This chapter includes:
•	Network environment	•	Installing network connected machine’s driver
•	Introducing useful network programs	•	IPv6 Configuration

•Using a wired network

Network environment

You need to set up the network protocols on the machine to use it as your network machine. You can set up the basic network settings through the machine's control panel.

The following table shows the network environments supported by the machine:

Item		Requirements
Network interface	•	Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX
	• 802.11 b/g Wireless LAN (Optional)
Network operating system	•	Windows
		2000/XP/2003/2008/Vista/7/2008
		Server R2
	•	Various Linux OS
	• Mac OS X 10.3 ~ 10.6
	•	UNIX
Network protocols	•	TCP/IPv4
	•	DHCP, BOOTP
	• DNS, WINS, Bonjour, SLP, UPnP
	• Standard TCP/IP Printing (RAW), LPR,
		IPP, WSD
	• SNMPv 1/2/3, HTTP (S), Telnet, SMTP
		(S), LDAP (S), IPSec
	•	SMB, FTP, Kerberos
	• TCP/IPv6 (DHCP, DNS, RAW, LPR,
		SNMPv 1/2/3, HTTP (S), IPSec)
	(See "IPv6 Configuration" on page 6.)
Wireless security	•	Authentication: Open System, Shared
(Optional)		Key, WPA Personal, WPA2 Personal
		(PSK)
	• Encryption: WEP64, WEP128, TKIP,
		AES

Introducing useful network programs

There are several programs available to setup the network settings easily in network environment. For the network administrator especially, managing several machines on the network is possible.

Before using the programs below, set the IP address first.

SyncThru™ Web Service

Web server embedded on your network machine, which allows you to:

•Configure the network parameters necessary for the machine to connect to various network environments.

•Customize machine settings.

(See "Using SyncThru™ Web Service" on page 1.)

SyncThru™ Web Admin Service

A web-based machine management solution for network administrators. SyncThru™ Web Admin Service provides you with an efficient way of managing network devices and lets you remotely monitor and troubleshoot network machines from any site with corporate internet access. Download this program from http://solution.samsungprinter.com.

SetIP

This utility program allows you to select a network interface and manually configure the IP addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol (See "IPv4 setting using SetIP Program (Windows)" on page 2 , "IPv4 setting using SetIP Program (Macintosh)" on page 2 or "IPv4 setting using SetIP Program (Linux)" on page 3).

TCP/IPv6 is not supported by this program.

Using a wired network

You must set up the network protocols on your machine to use it on your network. This chapter will show you how this is easily accomplished.

You can use network after connecting network cable to a corresponding port on your machine.

Printing configuration report

You can print a Network Configuration Report from the machine’s control panel that will show the current machine’s network settings. This will help you to set up a network and troubleshoot problems.

1.Press Menu on the control panel.

2.Press the up/down arrow to highlight System Setup and press OK.

3.Press the up/down arrow to highlight Report and press OK.

4.Press the up/down arrow to highlight Network Info. and press OK.
