Network Configuration

respond to this request with a router advertisement packet containing network-layer configuration parameters.

Notes:

•IPv6 is optional and may be used in addition to or in place of IPv4. If both protocols are disabled, you cannot access CentreWare IS.

•If your printer is locked, you must log in as a system administrator. For details, see Accessing CentreWare IS on page 17.

1.In CentreWare IS, click Properties > Connectivity > Protocols > IP (Internet Protocol).

2.Under Protocol, select Enabled. By default, IPv6 is disabled.

CAUTION: If both IPv4 and IPv6 are disabled, you cannot access CentreWare IS. You must re- enable TCP/IP at the printer control panel before you can access CentreWare IS. Disabling TCP/IP or changing the IP address also disables any dependant protocols.

Notes:

•The host name is the same for IPv4 and IPv6. If you change the host name for IPv6, the host name changes for IPv4 as well.

•Enabling or Disabling IPv6 will restart the Network Controller when you click Apply.

3.Type the required Domain Name.

4.Under Stateless Addresses, select Use Router Supplied Prefixes. Notes:

•Router-supplied prefixes are 64-bit sub-network address that define how the printer can perform auto-configuration. If routers are present, they will periodically send Router Advertisement packets containing address prefixes.

•Routers will not forward packets with link-local addresses.

•Enabling Stateless Addresses allows the printer to automatically populate the Link-Local Address. Link-Local addresses are network addresses that are used to communicate on point-to-point links within one segment of a local network. They allow addressing hosts without requiring a public address prefix.

Default DHCP Settings

By default, the printer performs auto-address DHCP configuration every time it starts up. This is used for neighbor discovery and address resolution on the local IPv6 subnet.

1.Select one of the following options:

•Use DHCP as directed by a router: This default option is fully automatic and allows the printer to obtain and display the DHCPv6 Address on the screen.

•Always Enable DHCP for address assignment and other configuration data: This options is fully automatic and allows the printer to obtain and display the DHCPv6 Address on the screen along with additional configuration data.

•Never use DHCP: If you select this option, you must configure the Manual Address Options and DNS separately.

•Always Enable DHCP for other configuration data only: This option only obtains other configuration data.

2.If you want the printer to release its IP address when the it restarts, select Release DHCPv6 Address at Power Down.
