Wired (802.3) network settings The following table describes the 802.3 wired settings shown on the network configuration page. Parameter Description Hardware Address (MAC) The Media Access Control (MAC) address that identifies the HP All-in-One. This is a unique 12-digit identification number assigned to networking hardware for identification, including routers, switches, and other such devices. No two pieces of hardware have the same MAC address. Note Some Internet service providers (ISPs) require that you register the MAC address of the Network Card or LAN Adapter that was connected to your cable or DSL modem during installation. IP Address This address uniquely identifies the device on the network. IP addresses are assigned dynamically through DHCP or AutoIP. You can also set up a static IP address, though this is not recommended. Caution Be careful when manually assigning an IP address. An invalid IP address during installation will prevent your network components from seeing the HP All-in-One. Subnet Mask A subnet is an IP address assigned by the installation software to make an additional network available as part of a larger network. Subnets are specified by a subnet mask. This mask determines which of the HP All-in-One IP address bits identify the network and subnet, and which bits identify the device itself. Note It is recommended that the HP All-in-One and the computers that use it all reside on the same subnet. Default Gateway A node on a network that serves as an entrance to another network. A node in this instance can be a computer or some other device. Note The address of the default gateway is assigned by the installation software. Configuration Source The protocol used to assign the IP address to the HP All-in-One: ● AutoIP: The installation software automatically determines the configuration parameters. ● DHCP: The configuration parameters are supplied by a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server on the network. On small networks, this could be a router. ● Manual: The configuration parameters are set manually, such as a static IP address. ● Not Specified: The mode used when the HP All-in-One is initializing.

Wired (802.3) network settings
The following table describes the 802.3 wired settings shown on the network
configuration page.
Parameter
Description
Hardware
Address (MAC)
The Media Access Control (MAC) address that identifies the
HP All-in-One. This is a unique 12-digit identification number
assigned to networking hardware for identification, including
routers, switches, and other such devices. No two pieces of
hardware have the same MAC address.
Note
Some Internet service providers (ISPs) require that you
register the MAC address of the Network Card or LAN Adapter
that was connected to your cable or DSL modem during
installation.
IP Address
This address uniquely identifies the device on the network. IP
addresses are assigned dynamically through DHCP or AutoIP.
You can also set up a static IP address, though this is not
recommended.
Caution
Be careful when manually assigning an IP address. An
invalid IP address during installation will prevent your network
components from seeing the HP All-in-One.
Subnet Mask
A subnet is an IP address assigned by the installation software to
make an additional network available as part of a larger network.
Subnets are specified by a subnet mask. This mask determines
which of the HP All-in-One IP address bits identify the network
and subnet, and which bits identify the device itself.
Note
It is recommended that the HP All-in-One and the
computers that use it all reside on the same subnet.
Default
Gateway
A node on a network that serves as an entrance to another
network. A node in this instance can be a computer or some other
device.
Note
The address of the default gateway is assigned by the
installation software.
Configuration
Source
The protocol used to assign the IP address to the HP All-in-One:
AutoIP
: The installation software automatically determines
the configuration parameters.
DHCP
: The configuration parameters are supplied by a
dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server on the
network. On small networks, this could be a router.
Manual
: The configuration parameters are set manually, such
as a static IP address.
Not Specified
: The mode used when the HP All-in-One is
initializing.
