TCP/IP
The TCP/IP page provides configuration parameters summarized
in Table 4.1
.
Table 4.1 TCP/IP Settings (1 of 3)
Item Description
IP Configuration
Method
Selects the method that the HP Jetdirect print server will use for
its IP configuration parameters: BOOTP (default), DHCP,
Manual, or Auto IP.
For BOOTP or DHCP, the IP parameters will be automatically
configured by a BOOTP or DHCP server each time the print
server is powered on.
If you select Manual, then basic IP parameters can be manually
entered using this Web page, or using other available tools.
If you select Auto IP, then a unique link-local address 169.254.x.x
will be assigned.
For more information, see Chapter 3
.
Host Name Specifies a readable IP name (the SNMP SysName object) for
the network device. The name must start with a letter and can
end in a letter or number, up to 32 ASCII characters. The default
name is NPIxxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the LAN
hardware (MAC) address.
IP Address Use this field to manually assign the Internet Protocol address on
the HP Jetdirect print server. The IP address is a four byte (32-bit)
address in the form "n.n.n.n", where 'n' is a number from 0 to 255.
An IP address uniquely identifies a node on a TCP/IP network.
Duplicate IP addresses on a TCP/IP network are not allowed. For
more information on IP addresses, see Appendix A
.
Subnet Mask If subnetting is used, use this field to manually assign a subnet
mask. A subnet mask is a 32-bit number that, when applied to an
IP address, determines which bits specify the network and
subnet, and which bits uniquely specify the node.
For more information on subnet masks, see Appendix A
.
Default Gateway Identifies the IP address of a router or computer that is used to
connect to other networks or subnetworks.
Domain Name Specifies the name of the Domain Name System (DNS) domain
that the HP Jetdirect print server resides in (for example,
support.hp.com). It does not include the host name; it is not the
Fully Qualified Domain Name (such as printer1.support.hp.com).
