Xante 3 Series warranty Set the TCP/IP Address, Broadcast Addresses, Subnet Addresses

Broadcast Addresses

The server uses a broadcast address to send information to all network workstations. In the absence of subnetting, the broadcast address is created by using the network ID address octets and 255 (all 1s) for the host ID octets.

XANTÉ printer default addresses
On a class C network	, the broadcast address is	192.9.200.255
On a class B network	, the broadcast address is	192.9.255.255
On a class A network	, the broadcast address is	192.255.255.255

Subnet Addresses

Subnetting is used frequently to manage traffic between ports on a router more efficiently. Subnetworks are created by using part of the host ID as a subnetwork ID. The balance of the host ID identifies the individual workstations assigned to the sub-network.

XANTÉ Command Center (Macintosh version) allows you to set subnetting information using the Advanced button in the TCP/IP Address dialog box. Check with your System Supervisor for details about your network’s subnet addresses.

Set the TCP/IP Address

Your printer’s default TCP/IP address should be changed to agree with your network’s TCP/IP addresses. Change the address using XANTÉ Command Center or the front panel I/F:IP Address menu. Check with your System Supervisor for the correct TCP/IP address.

See chapter 3 (Macintosh) or 4 (PC) to install and configure

Command Center on your host computer.

Note: If you perform a factory reset, the TCP/IP address reverts back to the XANTÉ factory default address.
