Changing Workgroup Names Windows environments define groups of related computers as "workgroups." By default, the Ethernet Interface belongs to the workgroup called "WORKGROUP." However, you may want to change this to suit your network better. To do this: 1. Load a Web browser on your Windows station and direct it to the URL "http://Ethernet InterfaceIPaddress/networkConf.html" (e.g. "http://192.75.11.9/networkConf.html"). NOTE: If prompted for a "User ID" and password first, type in "root" for the ID and press ENTER at the password prompt since there is no password by default. 2. At the "Network Configuration" HTML form that displays, search for the "Windows (NetBIOS TCP/IP)" section and highlight the "Workgroup Name" field. 3. Type in the new workgroup name for the Ethernet Interface. 4. Click on the SUBMIT button when done. Changing Destination Names When defining some printers within Windows environments, the Ethernet Interface requires that you specify a pre-defined destination rather than any name you would like. For example, when creating a new printer under Windows NT, you are presented with a screen similar to Figure 4-2. Figure 4-2. Windows NT Print Setup Dialogue Box Windows Configuration 4-7

Windows Configuration
Changing Workgroup Names
Windows environments define groups of related computers as “workgroups.” By
default, the Ethernet Interface belongs to the workgroup called “WORKGROUP.”
However, you may want to change this to suit your network better. To do this:
1.
Load a Web browser on your Windows station and direct it to the URL
http://
Ethernet InterfaceIPaddress
/networkConf.html
(e.g. “
”).
NOTE:
If prompted for a “User ID” and password first, type in “
root
” for the
ID and press ENTER at the password prompt since there is no
password by default.
2.
At the “Network Configuration” HTML form that displays, search for the
“Windows (NetBIOS TCP/IP)” section and highlight the “Workgroup Name”
field.
3.
Type in the new workgroup name for the Ethernet Interface.
4.
Click on the SUBMIT button when done.
Changing Destination Names
When defining some printers within Windows environments, the Ethernet
Interface requires that you specify a pre-defined destination rather than any
name you would like. For example, when creating a new printer under Windows
NT, you are presented with a screen similar to Figure 4–2.
