UNIX Systems For more information on setting up DHCP on UNIX systems, see the bootpd man page. On HP-UX systems, a sample DHCP configuration file (dhcptab) may be located in the /etc directory. Since HP-UX presently does not provide Dynamic Domain Name Services (DDNS) for its DHCP implementations, HP recommends that you set all print server lease durations to "infinite". This ensures that print server IP addresses remain static until dynamic domain name services are provided. Windows Systems HP Jetdirect print servers support IP configuration from a Windows NT or 2000 DHCP server. This section describes how to set up a pool, or "scope," of IP addresses that the Windows server can assign or lease to any requester. When configured for BOOTP or DHCP operation and powered on, the HP Jetdirect print server automatically sends a BOOTP or DHCP request for its IP configuration. If properly set up, a Windows DHCP server will respond with the print server's IP configuration data. Note This information is provided as an overview. For specific information or for additional support, see the information supplied with your DHCP server software. Note To avoid problems resulting from IP addresses that change, HP recommends that all printers be assigned IP addresses with infinite leases or reserved IP addresses. ENWW TCP/IP Configuration 65
