Setting the print
server’s IP address
using DHCP
Follow the instructions below to download the IP address using
DHCP:
1. Edit or create a scope in the DHCP manager of the DHCP
daemon. The entries included in this scope should contain the
following parameters:
•
range of IP addresses
•
subnet mask
•
default router IP address
•
WINS server IP address(es) or DDNS server IP address(es)
•
lease time
2. Activate the scope.
The AXIS 5600+ automatically downloads the DHCP parameters.
If you are using WINS or DDNS, you should include at least one
WINS or DDNS server IP address in the DHCP scope. Immediately
after the IP address has been received, the AXIS 5600+ registers its
host name and IP address on the WINS alternatively DDNS server.
Refer to
Registering and Resolving Host Names
, on page 25 for more
information.
The AXIS 5600+ can automatically download a customized config file
from a TFTP server. Just add the name of the config file and the
TFTP server’s IP address to your DHCP scope. The config file is
downloaded immediately after the AXIS 5600+ receives its IP address.
Notes:
❏
You do not have to restart the AXIS 5600+ to download the IP
address.
❏
If you do a factory default on the AXIS 5600+ and DHCP is not
available, Auto-IP will automatically set the IP-address of the
print server.
