IP Assignments for Initial Contact: Information Needed Before Starting
12.2. Information Needed Before Starting
If you haven’t already done so, you must have the following
information from (or cleared by) your
network administrator :
* IP address - in most of the examples we will use
192.168.0.227
(DHCP: You need a temporary static address)
* Network Mask - in the examples we will use 255.255.255.0
(DCHP: Not necessary)
* Default Gateway (unless Auto-Routing (RIP) is used).
(DCHP: Not necessary)
You also need to know the MAC address (= IEEE address =
hardware adapter address) address of the unit. This is written
on the label. If the label is damaged or gone, you can find the
MAC address on the Main Status Pages. In most of the
exam-
ples , we will use 00c0a200801e.
Host Name:
You should choose a host name which will identify the unit in
the LAN environment, and you must do so if you will using
DHCP to assign an IP address to the print server. There are a
number of print environments, for example OS/400 systems,
that also need to use a host name for the print server.
The unit will generate a default host name by attaching the last
six digits from the MAC address to a prefix such as IM or IMA
(depending on the product and model).
You may use, modify, or totally replace this name. If you use
the following guidelines, you will avoid conflicts caused by dif-
fering protocols found in today's typically mixed network envi-
ronments:
• Name length: minimum 2 and maximum 16 ASCII
characters from the restricted list below.
• Do not use any tabs or character spaces (“blanks”)
• There is no distinction made between upper and lower
case.
