Table 4.13 Other Protocols (2 of 2) Item Enable Device Discovery Enable Management Protocols Description Enable or disable device discovery protocols supported by the print server: SLP (Service Location Protocol). If enabled (checked), the HP Jetdirect print server sends SLP packets, which are used by system applications for automated discovery and installation. If disabled (cleared), SLP packets are not sent. mDNS (multicast Domain Name System). If enabled (checked), Multicast Domain Name System (mDNS) services are provided. mDNS is typically used on small networks for IP address and name resolution (through UDP port 5353) where a conventional DNS server is not used. Multicast IPv4. If enabled (checked), the print server will send and receive IP version 4 multicast packets.

Enable or disable RCFG, a remote IPX configuration protocol used by older management tools to configure Novell NetWare parameters. Disabling RCFG does not affect direct mode printing using IPX/SPX. Disabling Telnet, FTP firmware upgrades, and RCFG is recommended. Wireless Use this link to manage secure wireless configuration settings.
