Field
Description
DHCP
This field allows you to enable or disable the print server's ability to get its IP address from a DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server. When disabled, you can provide a fixed IP address in the
following fields.
IP Address
This IP address is assigned to the print server. If you have a private LAN and do not plan to connect to the
TCP/IP-based internet, NETGEAR recommends that you use the address from the IETP-designated
private addresses (for example, 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x).
Subnet Mask This subnet mask defines the range of addresses that are reachable on your local LAN.
Gateway
Address
This IP address is what the print server uses for stations with IP addresses not reachable on your local
LAN.
Logical Port Tab
Logical printers (Logical Ports) can be used under Linux or Unix. The Print Server supports 3 Logical
Ports. This screen allows configuration of Logical Ports.
