Table 4-3 TCP/IP Summary tab
Item Description
Host Name Specifies the IP host name assigned to the device and stored on the HP Jetdirect print
server.
To configure a host name, see the Network Identification tab.
IPv4 status Indicates the status of IPv4 operation. IPv4 cannot be disabled from the embedded Web
server in this release.
Fully Qualified Domain Name (IPv4/
IPv6) The fully qualified domain name (FQDN) consists of the device's host name and domain
name. Unless the network administrator segments domains into separate IPv4 and IPv6
hosts, the FQDN can be used on either IPv4 or IPv6 networks simultaneously.
IPv4 Address Identifies the IPv4 address, subnet mask and default gateway for the print server.
Config By Specifies how the IPv4 parameters were configured: DHCP, BOOTP, Manual, or Auto
IP.
DHCP Lease Time If DHCP is used for configuration, the duration of the DHCP IP address lease (in
seconds) for the print server will be displayed.
IPv6 Status Indicates the status of IPv6 operation. IPv6 can be enabled or disabled through the
embedded Web server.
Fully Qualified Domain Name (IPv6
only) The fully qualified domain name (FQDN) consists of the device's host name and domain
name. Depending on the network architecture, it can be the same as, or different from,
the printer's IPv4 FQDN. If assigned, it applies to the IPv6 network only.
IPv6 Address list IPv6 addresses configured on the print server are listed. For each address, the following
items are specified:
●
Prefix length: identifies the number of bits that comprise the fixed portion of the
address. Typically, it is 64 and identifies network/subnet portion of the address.
● Config By: identifies how the address was configured, such as auto-configuration
through link-local addressing, by a Router, by a DHCP(v6) server, or configured
manually.
