This selection controls how the machine obtains an IP address. The default setting is
Auto
.
Note
If you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the
Boot Method
to
Static
so that the print server has a static IP address. This will prevent the print server from trying to
obtain an IP address from any of these systems. To change the Boot Method, use the machine’s control
panel, BRAdmin Light utility or Web Based Management (web browser).
