Local network settings
You can include your machine in your local network.
Depending on the services and security policy
implemented in your local network, other network
parameters are also available:
• network security settings (Secure IP, SSL certificate);
• configuration of the SNTP server;
• configuration of the client FTP port;
• configuration of the SNMP service;
• configuration of the SMTP server;
• Active Directory configuration;
• print server settings (RAW, LPR, IPP);
• configuration of the LDAP server.
Configuring the Ethernet network
We recommend
automatic configuration
of the
machine's local network settings when your local network
has a DHCP or BOOTP server that can dynamically
allocate addresses to the peripherals present on the LAN,
on the condition that
the IP address allocated to the
machine is unique and always identical.
Otherwise, we recommend
manual configuration
.
IEEE (or Ethernet address) or MAC address
The machine's Ethernet interface already contains an
IEEE address that cannot be modified, but only consulted.

The machine's IEEE address is displayed in the
network parameter
IEEE ADDRESS
.

NetBIOS names
NetBIOS names, which can be used with network options,
are used to identify the machine from a PC connected on
a local network (for example with the name «IMP-
NETWORK-1»).

Enter the name using the virtual keyboard (maxi-
mum 15 characters). In the event of an error, use
the
key to delete a character. Press
OK
to
confirm the new setting.
5
Press
MENU
to return to the home screen.
Ethernet network communication speed
By default, the machine is configured to adapt its
communication speed automatically to that of the
Ethernet network. However, you can specify the
communication speed to be used on the Ethernet
network.

Press the
MENU
key.

Select the communication speed required from the
options available in the list:
AUTOMATIC
,
100
FULL DUPLEX
,
100 HALF DUPLEX
,
10 FULL
DUPLEX
and
10 HALF DUPLEX
. Use the up and
down arrows to view all available options. Press
OK
to confirm the new setting.

Automatic configuration of the Ethernet network
in IPv4
To automatically configure the machine's local network
settings:
1
Press the
MENU
key.
2
Select
SETTINGS
>
COMMUNICATION
>
LOCAL
NETWORK
>
IPV4
.
3
Press
ADDRESS ALLOCATION
.
4
Select
AUTOMATIC
from the options available in
the list. Press
OK
to confirm the new setting.
The machine will search for a DHCP or BOOTP
server on the local network that can dynamically
allocate its network settings.
This operation may take a few minutes.
5
Check that the parameters
IP ADDRESS
,
SUBNET MASK
,
GATEWAY
,
PRIMARY DNS
,
SECONDARY DNS
,
WINS 1 SERVER
and
WINS
2 SERVER
are correctly entered. If this is not the
case, you will have to configure them manually.
Note
Although quite simple, the network settings
sometimes require expert knowledge of
your computer configuration. We recom-
mend you consult the person in your com-
pany who administers the network to do the
configuration described in this section.
Note
The machine is able to operate on IPv4 and
IPv6 networks.
Note
If the machine is set to automatic configura-
tion (see Automatic configuration of the
Ethernet network), these addresses may be
filled automatically by some DHCP servers.
