XEROX DOCUPRINT NETWORK PRINTER SERIES INSTALLATION PLANNING GUIDE FOR MODEL 92C NPS
IP broadcast address
Series of four integers between 0 and 255 separated by a period,
such as 255.255.255.0, to create an IP broadcast address. (Do not
use the IP address value.)
•
If you are on a TCP/IP network, assign a valid IP broadcast
address.
•
If you are not on a TCP/IP network, use the Xerox-supplied IP
broadcast address value (255.255.252.0), which is a plus (+)
sign.
Default router
Series of four integers between 0 and 255 separated by a period,
such as 188.9.234.1, to specify a default router. Most TCP/IP
networks broadcast routing information.
Caution:
Specify a default router only if your network does not
specify broadcast routing information.
•
If the TCP/IP network does not broadcast routing information,
specify an IP address of an existing router that is on the same
subnet as the DocuPrint.
•
If you are not on a TCP/IP network, specify the default of
NONE.
Superuser password
(UNIX root password)
Select a password to prevent unauthorized access to your superuser
account. You can select a series of any ASCII characters, except
those that your UNIX system interprets in a special way. Passwords
have no limits on the number of characters, but the system uses only
the first eight characters to administer password security. The
password selection you make is case sensitive to the system.
Caution:
Select a password that cannot be easily obtained by
others to avoid unauthorized access to your account. This is not the
same password used for Operator or Administrator functions.
AppleTalk network information
If the DocuPrint NPS is installed in an AppleTalk network
environment, indicate whether your AppleTalk network is phase
1 or 2. Also, indicate the AppleTalk zone name you want the
DocuPrint to locate. The zone name must be the same name as the
existing zone used on the network to which the DocuPrint is
attached. In addition, you must specify the network device on which
AppleTalk runs.
Note:
Do not use the ampersand (“&”) in the zone name to avoid
conflict with UNIX expressions. If the ampersand character must be
used, enter “\\&” instead.
Accounting information
Indicate whether to set an interval on the system to automatically
purge accounting information. If accounting information is not purged
manually or automatically, the system disk can reach storage limits.
To keep your system running at optimum speed, you need to
periodically purge accounting data.
