Tools and utilities
System tools and utilities for IPv6 networks are available to access or troubleshoot communications
with the print server. The following are some examples:
●
ipconfig /all
or
ipv6 if
Identify IPv6 addresses for various interfaces configured on the system.
An interface IPv6 address can contain a
ScopeID
, which is an interface index identifier (for
example, %3) that is appended to a link-local IPv6 address.
●
ping6
Send test packets to a remote interface and report the response packets. This command
uses the following syntax:
ping6 <IPv6 address><%ScopeID>
NOTE:
On Microsoft Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2008, use the ping command
for an IPv6 address by specifying the appropriate command option.
In the example,
<IPv6 address>
is the address of the remote host interface, such as the print
server. The
<%ScopeID>
uniquely identifies the interface on the local system when it is
configured with multiple link-local IPv6 addresses.
For example, if the print server's link-local IPv6 address is
fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd
, and
the Microsoft Windows system contains a LAN interface identifier (%3), enter the following:
ping6 fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd%3
Depending on the local interface used, you might need to create a route to the remote host
address.
●
IPv6 addresses as URL
An IPv6 address in a URL must be enclosed in brackets. The following
is an example using the HP Embedded Web Server on the HP Jetdirect print server:
http://[fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd]
In the example,
fe80::20e:7fff:fee8:1dd
is the IPv6 address of the print server.
NOTE:
The browser must support direct IPv6 addressing as a URL.
For detailed information on these and other tools, see your system documentation and help.
IPv4 configuration
This section provides specific IPv4 configuration information for HP Jetdirect print servers on a TCP/
IPv4 network.
Server-based and manual TCP/IP configuration (IPv4)
When in a default factory state (as initially shipped or after a cold reset) and turned on, the
HP Jetdirect print server attempts to obtain its TCP/IP configuration using a server-based method,
such as bootstrap protocol/trivial transfer protocol (BOOTP/TFTP), dynamic host configuration
protocol/trivial transfer protocol (DHCP/TFTP), or reverse address resolution protocol (RARP).
Depending on the print server model, it can take several minutes for these methods to complete. If
configuration is not successful, a default IP address is assigned.
You can also configure the print server manually by using 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
