PRODUCT OVERVIEW
One or more of the following network communication systems may be used to transport documents from the client workstation to the printer:
•Ethernet local area network (LAN) running Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), AppleTalk, or Novell NetWare network protocol software.
•
•
Token Ring running TCP/IP, Novell 3.x, or AppleTalk network protocol software.
Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) running TCP/IP, Novell 3.x, or Apple Talk network protocols. The FDDI supports a Single Connection configuration only.
Multiple network devices may be installed on the same NPS controller. The default network device that ships with your NPS controller is a 100 Mbit Ethernet connection. You may install other network devices by installing additional network cards, provided each card has a unique network to which it connects. For example, if you use a Token Ring network connection, you have the option of using the default Ethernet device as a secondary network.
If you choose to install multiple network devices on your NPS controller, the following parameters apply:
•You must select a primary network device and designate any others as secondary. The primary network device does not have to be the default Ethernet device that ships with your controller; it can be any of the network devices installed.
•
•
You must run the TCP/IP protocol on the primary network device. You may also run TCP/IP on other network devices. For each network device running TCP/IP, you must specify a unique IP address and IP netmask. For the primary network device, you must specify the HostName and router IP address. The HostName for any secondary devices is created from the name chosen for the primary device.
Note: You may not use the NPS controller as an IP router. Consequently, the router IP address must be on the primary network devices network only.
You may run the AppleTalk protocol on only one network device. The network device on which AppleTalk is run does not have to be the primary network device.
•You may run Novell protocols on only the primary network device.
