Link Local Address
The link local address method is used in extreme cases under the following
conditions:
• The server has an unknown static IP address.
• The server is on a different subnet than the computer.
(Using the link local address is a somewhat complicated procedure requiring
setting the computer to a static IP in the 169.254.xxx.xxx range).
