TCP/IP 4 If you connect the machine with an Ethernet cable to your network, use the Wired LAN setting selections. If you connect the machine to a wireless network, use the WLAN setting selections. BOOT Method 4 This selection controls how the machine obtains an IP address. Auto 4 In this mode the machine will scan the network for a DHCP server. If it can find one, and if the DHCP server is configured to allocate an IP address to the machine, then the IP address supplied by the DHCP server will be used. If no DHCP server is available, then the machine will scan for a BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is available, and it is configured correctly, the machine will take its IP address from the BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is not available, the machine will scan for a RARP server. If a RARP server also does not answer, the IP Address is set using the APIPA protocol. After the machine is initially powered ON, it may take a few minutes for the machine to scan the network for a server. Static 4 In this mode the machine's IP address must be manually assigned. Once entered the IP address is locked to the assigned address. NOTE If you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the BOOT Method to Static so that the print server has a static IP address. This will prevent the print server from trying to obtain an IP address from any of these systems. To change the BOOT Method, use the machine's control panel, BRAdmin Light utility, Web Based Management or Remote Setup. IP Address 4 This field displays the current IP address of the machine. If you have chosen a BOOT Method of Static, enter the IP address that you wish to assign to the machine (check with your network administrator for a 24
