Table 3.2 describes parameters that may be included in the TFTP configuration file. Table 3.2 TFTP Configuration File Parameters (1 of 3) ews-config: idle-timeout: allow: netnum [mask] tcp-mss: Enables or disables the embedded web server on the HP Jetdirect print server. To enable, set to 1. To disable, set to 0. The number of seconds that an idle print data connection is allowed to remain open. Since the card supports only a single TCP connection, the idle timeout balances the opportunity of a host to recover or complete a print job against the ability of other hosts to access the printer. The acceptable values range from 0 to 3600 (1 hour). If "0" is typed, the timeout mechanism is disabled. The default is 90 seconds. Provides an entry into the host access list stored on the HP Jetdirect print server. Each entry specifies a host or network of hosts that are allowed to connect to the printer. The format is "allow: netnum [mask]" where netnum is a network number or host IP address, and mask is an address mask of bits applied to the network number and host address to verify access. Up to 10 access list entries are allowed. If there are no entries, all hosts are permitted access. For example: allow: 192.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 allows hosts on network 192. allow: 192.168.10.1 allows a single host. In this case, the default mask 255.255.255.255 is assumed and is not required. Specifies the maximum segment size (MSS) that the HP Jetdirect print server will advertise for use when communicating with local subnets (MSS=1460 bytes or more) or remote subnets (MSS=536 bytes): 0 (default) All networks are assumed to be local (MSS=1460 bytes or more). 1 Use MSS=1460 bytes (or more) for subnets, and MSS=536 bytes for remote networks. 2 All networks are assumed to be remote (MSS=536 bytes), except the local subnet. 3-34 TCP/IP Configuration ENWW

3-34 TCP/IP Configuration
ENWW
Table 3.2
describes parameters that may be included in the
TFTP configuration file.
Table 3.2
TFTP Configuration File Parameters (1 of 3)
ews-config:
Enables or disables the embedded web server on the HP
Jetdirect print server. To enable, set to 1. To disable, set to 0.
idle-timeout:
The number of seconds that an idle print data connection is
allowed to remain open. Since the card supports only a single
TCP connection, the idle timeout balances the opportunity
of a host to recover or complete a print job against the ability
of other hosts to access the printer. The acceptable values
range from 0 to 3600 (1 hour). If “0” is typed, the timeout
mechanism is disabled. The default is 90 seconds.
allow: netnum
[mask]
Provides an entry into the host access list stored on the HP
Jetdirect print server. Each entry specifies a host or network
of hosts that are allowed to connect to the printer. The format
is “allow:
netnum
[mask]” where netnum is a network number
or host IP address, and mask is an address mask of bits
applied to the network number and host address to verify
access. Up to 10 access list entries are allowed. If there are
no entries, all hosts are permitted access. For example:
allow: 192.0.0.0
255.0.0.0 allows hosts on network 192.
allow: 192.168.10.1 allows a single host. In this case, the
default mask 255.255.255.255 is assumed and is not
required.
tcp-mss:
Specifies the maximum segment size (MSS) that the HP
Jetdirect print server will advertise for use when
communicating with local subnets (MSS=1460 bytes or
more) or remote subnets (MSS=536 bytes):
0 (default) All networks are assumed to be local (MSS=1460
bytes or more).
1 Use MSS=1460 bytes (or more) for subnets, and MSS=536
bytes for remote networks.
2 All networks are assumed to be remote (MSS=536 bytes),
except the local subnet.
