  • Page 27: Tcp/Ip Configuration

    TCP/IP Configuration To operate properly on a TCP/IP network, the HP Jetdirect print server must be configured with valid TCP/IP network configuration parameters, such as an IP address that is valid for your network. HP Jetdirect print server supports both IPv4 and IPv6 networks simultaneously. Print server configuration for IPv4 operation remains the same as prior Jetdirect products.

  • Page 28: Ipv6 Address Configuration

    For example, portions of the IPv6 address space that are reserved are illustrated below: ● 2001:DB8::/32 (reserved for use only as examples in documentation) ● FE80::/10 (reserved for link-local addresses only) IPv6 addresses do not use subnet masks as in IPv4 formats. Instead, the prefix length may be used to specify an entire network/subnet.

  • Page 29: Stateful Addresses

    The print server must receive Router Advertisement messages which are periodically sent by a router. These messages, among other things, contain one or more IPv6 prefix options (for example, specifying 64–bit local subnets, or a default route). These prefixes are combined with a 64-bit host address (derived from the print server's MAC address) to form the IPv6 stateless addresses configured on the print server.

  • Page 30: Tools And Utilities

    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. ●...

  • Page 31: Default Ip Address (Ipv4)

    two minutes may be used for these methods. If configuration is not successful, a default IP address will be assigned. The print server may also be configured manually. Manual-based tools include Telnet, a Web browser, the printer control panel, arp and ping commands (when the default IP address is 192.0.0.192), or SNMP-based management software.

  • Page 32: Default Ipv4 Address Configuration Options

    If a default IP address is assigned, the address will depend on the network to which the print server is connected. The print server senses broadcast packets on the network to determine the appropriate default IP settings: ● On small private networks that adhere to automated, standards-based IP address assignments, the print server uses a link-local addressing technique to assign a unique IP address.

  • Page 33: Default Ipv4 Behavior

    Default IPv4 Behavior When powered on, a factory-default print server connected to a network through a cable (wired) will systematically use BOOTP, DHCP, and RARP to retrieve its IPv4 settings. Up to two minutes are used. If configuration is not successful, a default IPv4 address will be assigned as described previously. Configuration tools that require a specific default IP address on the print server for initial communication may not work without modification.

  • Page 34: Using Bootp/Tftp (Ipv4)

    ● Embedded Web server. You can browse to the embedded Web server on the HP Jetdirect print server to set configuration parameters. For more information, see Embedded Web Server (V.36.xx) on page ● Printer Control Panel. (For printers that support Jetdirect control panel menus) You can manually enter the configuration data using the printer control panel keys.

  • Page 35: Bootp/Tftp On Unix

    BOOTP/TFTP on UNIX This section describes how to configure the print server using BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) and TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) services on UNIX servers. BOOTP and TFTP are used to download network configuration data from a server to the HP Jetdirect print server over the network. Systems That Use Network Information Service (NIS) If your system uses NIS, you may need to rebuild the NIS map with the BOOTP service before performing the BOOTP configuration steps.
  • Page 36 Table 3-1 Tags Supported in a BOOTP/DHCP Boot file Item RFC 2132 Description Option The name of the peripheral. This name identifies an entry point to a list of parameters for a nodename specific peripheral. nodename must be the first field in an entry. (In the example above, nodename is “picasso”.)

  • Page 47: Windows Systems

    If your HP-UX system does not provide Dynamic Domain Name Services (DDNS) for its DHCP implementation, HP recommends that you set all print server lease durations to “infinite”. This ensures that print server IP addresses remain static until dynamic domain name services are available. Windows Systems HP Jetdirect print servers support IP configuration from a supported Windows DHCP server.

  • Page 48: To Discontinue Dhcp Configuration

    To configure DHCP options now, select Yes and click Next. If desired, specify the IP address of the router (or default gateway) to be used by clients. Then click Next. If desired, specify the Domain Name and DNS (Domain Name System) servers for clients. Click Next.

  • Page 49: Using Rarp (Ipv4)

    NOTE: If you choose to re-enable a DHCP configuration, the print server will acquire its configuration information from a DHCP server. This means that when you choose DHCP and complete your configuration session (using Telnet, for example), the TCP/IP protocol for the print server is re-initialized and all current configuration information is deleted.

  • Page 50: Using The Arp And Ping Commands (Ipv4)

    where <IP address> is the assigned address from RARP. If ping does not respond, see Troubleshooting the HP Jetdirect Print Server on page 117. Using the arp and ping Commands (IPv4) You can configure an HP Jetdirect print server with an IP address using an ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) command from a supported system.

  • Page 51: Using Telnet (Ipv4)

    NOTE: Once the IP address has been set on the print server, additional arp and ping commands will be ignored. Once the IP address is configured, arp and ping cannot be used unless the print server is reset to factory values (see Troubleshooting the HP Jetdirect Print Server on page 117).

  • Page 52: A Typical Telnet Session

    CAUTION: Using Telnet to manually set an IPv4 address will override dynamic IP configuration (such as BOOTP, DHCP, or RARP), resulting in a static configuration. In a static configuration, the IP values are fixed and the operation of BOOTP, DHCP, RARP and other dynamic configuration methods may no longer function.

  • Page 53: User Interface Options

    By default, the Telnet interface does not require a user name or password. If an administrator password has been set, you will be prompted for a user name and this password before you can enter and save Telnet command settings. By default, a Command Line interface is provided.
