Table 4-2 TCP/IP Settings (continued) Item Description For BOOTP or DHCP, the IP parameters will be automatically configured by a BOOTP or DHCP server each time the print server is powered on. If you select Manual, then basic IP parameters can be manually entered using this Web page, or using other available tools. If you select Auto IP, then a unique link-local address 169.254.x.x will be assigned. For more information, see TCP/IP Configuration. Host Name Specifies a readable IP name (the SNMP SysName object) for the network device. The name must start with a letter and can end in a letter or number, up to 32 ASCII characters. The default name is NPIxxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the LAN hardware (MAC) address. IP Address Use this field to manually assign the Internet Protocol address on the HP Jetdirect print server. The IP address is a four byte (32-bit) address in the form n.n.n.n, where n is a number from 0 to 255. An IP address uniquely identifies a node on a TCP/IP network. Duplicate IP addresses on a TCP/IP network are not allowed. For more information on IP addresses, see TCP/ IP Overview. Subnet Mask If subnetting is used, use this field to manually assign a subnet mask. A subnet mask is a 32-bit number that, when applied to an IP address, determines which bits specify the network and subnet, and which bits uniquely specify the node. For more information on subnet masks, see TCP/IP Overview. Default Gateway Identifies the IP address of a router or computer that is used to connect to other networks or subnetworks. Domain Name Specifies the name of the Domain Name System (DNS) domain that the HP Jetdirect print server resides in (for example, support.hp.com). It does not include the host name; it is not the Fully Qualified Domain Name (such as printer1.support.hp.com). Primary WINS Server Specifies the IP address of the primary Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) server. The WINS server provides IP address and name resolution services for network computers and devices. Secondary WINS Server Specifies the IP Address to be used for WINS if the primary WINS Server is unavailable. Syslog Server Specifies the IP address of a host computer that is configured to receive syslog messages from the HP Jetdirect print server. If a Syslog Server is not specified, syslog messages are disabled. For more information, see TCP/IP Overview. Syslog Maximum Messages Specifies the maximum number of syslog messages that can be sent by the HP Jetdirect print server on a per-minute basis. This setting allows administrators to control the log file size. The default is 10 per minute. If set to zero, no maximum number is defined. Syslog Priority Controls the filtering of syslog messages that are sent to the syslog server. The filter range is 0 to 8, with 0 being the most specific and 8 being the most general. Only messages that are lower than the filter level specified (that is, higher in priority) are reported. The default value is 8 which reports all syslog messages. A value of zero effectively disables syslog reporting. Idle Timeout Specifies the number of seconds that an idle connection is allowed to remain open. Up to 3600 seconds can be set. 270 is the default value. If set to 0, the timeout is disabled and TCP/IP connections will remain open until closed by the device at the other end of the network (for example, a workstation). ENWW Networking Tab 49

For
BOOTP
or
DHCP
, the IP parameters will be automatically configured by a BOOTP
or DHCP server each time the print server is powered on.
If you select
Manual
, then basic IP parameters can be manually entered using this Web
page, or using other available tools.
If you select
Auto IP
, then a unique link-local address 169.254.x.x will be assigned.
