Note: 1. DHCP server: With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), a host can automatically be given a unique IP address each time it connects to a network--making IP address management an easier task for network administrators. If the DHCP server is available from your network, you do not need to enter TCP/IP, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS information. Instead, this information will be automatically given for the product. 2. IP Address: An IP (Internet Protocol) address uniquely identifies a host connection to an IP network. System administrator or network designer assigns the IP address. The IP address consists of two parts, one identifying the network and the one identifying your node. The IP address is usually written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 10.1.30.186 could be an IP address. 3. SMTP: Stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. It is the main communication protocol used to send and receive e-mail on the internet. 4. DNS: Stands for Domain Name System. The DNS server identifies hosts via names instead of IP addresses. If the DNS server is available on your network, you can enter the domain name instead of digits for the IP address. 5. POP3: POP3 is the latest Post Office Protocol 3, this is a service that stores and serves e-mails for various client machines that are not connected to the Internet 24 hours a day. E-mails are held in POP3 until you log on. 6. LDAP: Stands for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. LDAP enables users to access directories and address books directly from external networked devices to simplify document distribution. 9
