Network Settings The Network Settings pages allow you to set or change configuration parameters for IPX/SPX, AppleTalk, DLC/LLC, and SNMP protocols. To assign a parameter setting, enter the desired value and click Apply. IPX/SPX The IPX/SPX tab allows you to configure IPX/SPX (Internet Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange) parameters on the HP Jetdirect print server for operation on a Novell NetWare or IPX/ SPX-compatible network (such as a Microsoft network). See Table 4-9 IPX/SPX Settings for a description of items on this page. CAUTION If you are using direct-mode printing over IPX/SPX on a Microsoft network, do not disable IPX/SPX. For a Novell NetWare network: ■ The embedded Web server may be used to select Queue Server Mode parameters in a Novell Directory Services (NDS) environment. ■ You cannot create the NDS print server, printer, and queue objects using the embedded Web server. To create these objects, use other available tools or utilities. Table 4-9 IPX/SPX Settings Item IPX/SPX Enable IPX/SPX Frame Type Description Enables or disables the IPX/SPX protocols on the HP Jetdirect print server. If the checkbox is empty, IPX/SPX is disabled. Specify the IPX/SPX frame type to be used by the HP Jetdirect print server on your network. After a frame type has been configured, all others will be counted and discarded. ■ All Frame Types (Auto): senses all frame types and configures the first one detected (default). ■ Ethernet 802.3 (EN_8023): limits the frame type to IPX over IEEE 802.3 frames. ■ Ethernet II (EN_II): limits the frame type to IPX over Ethernet frames. ■ Ethernet 802.2 (EN_8022): limits the frame type to IPX over IEEE 802.2 with IEEE 802.3 frames. ■ Ethernet SNAP (EN_SNAP): limits the frame type to IPX over SNAP with IEEE 802.3 frames. SAP Interval Print Server Name NDS Tree Name Specifies the time interval (in seconds) that the HP Jetdirect print server waits to send Service Advertising Protocol (SAP) messages, which are broadcast to advertise its service capabilities on a Novell NetWare network. To disable SAP messages, use the value "0". 60 is the default value. Specify a NetWare printer name for the HP Jetdirect print server (alphanumeric characters only). The default name is NPIxxxxxx, where xxxxxx are the last six digits of the HP Jetdirect print server's LAN hardware (MAC) address. Specify the name of the NDS tree for this device. The NDS (Novell Directory Services) tree name refers to the name of the organizational tree used by your network. To disable NDS support, leave this field blank. ENWW Networking Tab 75

Network Settings
The
Network Settings
pages allow you to set or change configuration parameters for
IPX/SPX
,
AppleTalk
,
DLC/LLC
, and
SNMP
protocols. To assign a parameter setting, enter the desired value
and click
Apply
.
IPX/SPX
The
IPX/SPX
tab allows you to configure IPX/SPX (Internet Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet
Exchange) parameters on the HP Jetdirect print server for operation on a Novell NetWare or IPX/
SPX-compatible network (such as a Microsoft network). See
Table
4-9
IPX/SPX
Settings
for a
description of items on this page.
CAUTION
If you are using direct-mode printing over IPX/SPX on a Microsoft network,
do
not
disable IPX/SPX.
For a Novell NetWare network:
The embedded Web server may be used to select Queue Server Mode parameters in a Novell
Directory Services (NDS) environment.
You cannot create the NDS print server, printer, and queue objects using the embedded Web
server. To create these objects, use other available tools or utilities.
Table 4-9
IPX/SPX Settings
Item
Description
IPX/SPX Enable
Enables or disables the IPX/SPX protocols on the HP Jetdirect print server. If the checkbox
is empty, IPX/SPX is disabled.
IPX/SPX Frame Type
Specify the IPX/SPX frame type to be used by the HP Jetdirect print server on your network.
After a frame type has been configured, all others will be counted and discarded.
All Frame Types (Auto): senses all frame types and configures the first one detected
(default).
Ethernet 802.3 (EN_8023): limits the frame type to IPX over IEEE 802.3 frames.
Ethernet II (EN_II): limits the frame type to IPX over Ethernet frames.
Ethernet 802.2 (EN_8022): limits the frame type to IPX over IEEE 802.2 with IEEE
802.3 frames.
Ethernet SNAP (EN_SNAP): limits the frame type to IPX over SNAP with IEEE 802.3
frames.
SAP Interval
Specifies the time interval (in seconds) that the HP Jetdirect print server waits to send
Service Advertising Protocol (SAP) messages, which are broadcast to advertise its service
capabilities on a Novell NetWare network. To disable SAP messages, use the value “0”. 60
is the default value.
Print Server Name
Specify a NetWare printer name for the HP Jetdirect print server (alphanumeric characters
only). The default name is NPIxxxxxx, where xxxxxx are the last six digits of the HP Jetdirect
print server's LAN hardware (MAC) address.
