Page 84 highlights

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. IPX/SPX protocols are used for operation on a Novell NetWare or IPX/SPX-compatible network (such as a Microsoft network). See Table 4-9 IPX/SPX Tab Settings on page 74 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 Tab 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. NDS Tree Name 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. NDS Context The print server's NDS context refers to the NDS container or organizational unit that contains the print server object. Print queue and device objects can be located anywhere within the NDS tree, but the HP Jetdirect print server must be configured with the fully-qualified print server object name. For example, if the print server object is found in the container "marketing.mytown.lj", the fully qualified print server context name (CN) is: "OU=marketing.OU=mytown.O=lj" 74 Chapter 4 Embedded Web Server (V.36.xx) ENWW

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. IPX/SPX protocols are used for operation on a
Novell NetWare or IPX/SPX-compatible network (such as a Microsoft network). See
Table
4
-
9
IPX/SPX
Tab Settings
on page
74
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 Tab 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.
NDS Tree Name
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.
NDS Context
The print server's NDS context refers to the NDS container or organizational unit that contains
the print server object. Print queue and device objects can be located anywhere within the NDS
tree, but the HP Jetdirect print server must be configured with the fully-qualified print server
object name.
For example, if the print server object is found in the container “marketing.mytown.lj”, the fully
qualified print server context name (CN) is:
“OU=marketing.OU=mytown.O=lj”
