Your Network Interface Board is now configured to operate Windows NT. You may print from
any application by following the normal print instructions for that application.
7.2 Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
DHCP is a service much like BootP that provides a method for assignment and maintenance
of IP addresses. The Network Interface Board is able to obtain IP information from this
service.
There are two user selectable parameters related to the DHCP function. These are
accessible in the TCP section of Network Administration, in the HTML pages.
1. Enable DHCP; and
2. IP Address in NVRAM
è If DHCP is not enabled, the Network Interface Board will make no DHCP requests
under any circumstances. If the Network Interface Board does not have an IP
address stored, or if "IP Address in NVRAM" is OFF, the Network Interface Board
will issue BOOTP requests, etc,
è If DHCP is enabled, the Network Interface Board will make DHCP requests when
the Network Interface Board is reset or on power up, when the Network Interface
Board does not have an IP address stored, or when " IP Address in NVRAM" is
OFF. These DHCP requests will be in addition to BOOTP requests.
è If DHCP is enabled, and the Network Interface Board had an IP address in NVRAM,
and "IP Address in NVRAM" is ON, then the Network Interface Board will use the IP
information from NVRAM and there will be no DHCP activity on the part of the Network
Interface Board.
The factory default is with both Enable DHCP - ON and IP Address in NVRAM - ON. In this
case, the Network Interface Board will issue DHCP requests if it does not already have IP
identification information stored in its NV RAM.
Important: If DHCP and the Network Interface Board is in the default mode, you must
establish a permanent lease or reservation for the Network Interface Board in the DHCP
server. Failure to do this may cause the same address to be given out to another host.
