Using DHCP (IPv4)
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP, RFC 2131/2132) is one of several auto configuration
mechanisms that the HP Jetdirect print server uses. If you have a DHCP server on your network, the
HP Jetdirect print server automatically obtains its IP address from that server and registers its name
with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services as long as a WINS (Windows Internet
Naming Service) server IP address has been specified.
A TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) configuration file may also be used with DHCP to configure
extended parameters. For more information on TFTP parameters, see “
Using BOOTP/TFTP (IPv4)
on page
24
”.
NOTE:
DHCP services must be available on the server. Refer to your system documentation
or online help to install or enable DHCP services.
NOTE:
If the Jetdirect print server and BOOTP/DHCP server are located on different subnets,
IP configuration may fail unless the routing device allows the transfer of DHCP requests between
subnets.
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.
