Tools and Utilities Similar to IPv4 environments, system tools and utilities for IPv6 networks are available to access or troubleshoot communications with the print server. However, these tools and utilities may require different command formats depending on your system. Some examples are listed below. ■ ipconfig /all or ipv6 if: From the Windows command line prompt, these commands will identify IPv6 addresses for various interfaces configured on the system. Note that an interface IPv6 address may contain a ScopeID, which is an interface index identifier (for example, "%3") appended to a link-local IPv6 address. ■ ping6: From the Windows command line prompt, this command sends test packets to a remote interface and reports response packets from that interface. The command format is: ping6 where is the address of the remote host interface (such as the print server). The value may be needed to uniquely specify the interface on the local system if it is configured with multiple link-local IPv6 addresses. For example, if the print server's link-local IPv6 address is fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd, and the Windows system contains a LAN interface with %3 appended to its link-local address, you would use the following command: ping6 fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd%3 Note that depending on the local interface used, a route to the remote host address may need to be created. ■ IPv6 addresses as URL: As a URL in a Web browser, an IPv6 address must be enclosed in brackets. For example, to access the print server's embedded Web server, enter: http://[fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd] where fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd is the IPv6 address of the print server. NOTE The browser must support direct IPv6 addressing as a URL, such as Mozilla Firefox 1.x. Your Microsoft Internet Explorer version may not support direct IPv6 addressing. For detailed information on these and other tools, see your system documentation and help. IPv4 Configuration This section provides IPv4-specific configuration information for HP Jetdirect 635n print servers on a TCP/IPv4 network. Server-Based and Manual TCP/IP Configuration (IPv4) When in a factory-default state and powered on, the HP Jetdirect print server will try to obtain its TCP/ IP configuration using a server-based method, such as BOOTP/TFTP, DHCP/TFTP, or RARP. These server-based methods are described later in this chapter. Depending on the print server model, up to two minutes may be used for these methods. If configuration is not successful, a default IP address will be assigned. 20 Chapter 3 TCP/IP Configuration ENWW

Tools and Utilities
Similar to IPv4 environments, system tools and utilities for IPv6 networks are available to access or
troubleshoot communications with the print server. However, these tools and utilities may require
different command formats depending on your system. Some examples are listed below.
■
ipconfig /all
or
ipv6 if
: From the Windows command line prompt, these commands will identify
IPv6 addresses for various interfaces configured on the system. Note that an interface IPv6
address may contain a
ScopeID
, which is an interface index identifier (for example, “%3”)
appended to a link-local IPv6 address.
■
ping6
: From the Windows command line prompt, this command sends test packets to a remote
interface and reports response packets from that interface. The command format is:
ping6 <IPv6 address><%ScopeID>
where
<IPv6 address>
is the address of the remote host interface (such as the print server).
The
<%ScopeID>
value may be needed to uniquely specify the interface on the local system if it
is configured with multiple link-local IPv6 addresses.
For example, if the print server's link-local IPv6 address is fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd, and the
Windows system contains a LAN interface with %3 appended to its link-local address, you would
use the following command:
ping6 fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd%3
Note that depending on the local interface used, a route to the remote host address may need to
be created.
■
IPv6 addresses as URL
: As a URL in a Web browser, an IPv6 address must be enclosed in
brackets. For example, to access the print server's embedded Web server, enter:
http://[fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd]
where
fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd
is the IPv6 address of the print server.
NOTE
The browser must support direct IPv6 addressing as a URL, such as Mozilla
Firefox 1.x. Your Microsoft Internet Explorer version may not support direct IPv6
addressing.
For detailed information on these and other tools, see your system documentation and help.
IPv4 Configuration
This section provides IPv4–specific configuration information for HP Jetdirect 635n print servers on a
TCP/IPv4 network.
Server-Based and Manual TCP/IP Configuration (IPv4)
When in a factory-default state and powered on, the HP Jetdirect print server will try to obtain its TCP/
IP configuration using a server-based method, such as BOOTP/TFTP, DHCP/TFTP, or RARP.
These server-based methods are described later in this chapter. Depending on the print server
model, up to two minutes may be used for these methods. If configuration is not successful, a default
IP address will be assigned.
