Under Host Name, type a unique name for your printer. If the host name successfully registers to the
DNS server, the host name appears under Verified Host Name. The default host name is XRX_xxx,
where xxx is the MAC address of the printer.
Note:
If no host name, or a different host name appears under Verified Host Name, the host name
did not successfully register to the DNS server. Ensure that your network supports direct client DNS
name registration, or configure your DHCP server to perform updates on behalf of the DHCP clients.
Configure your DNS server to allow dynamic updates.
4.
Under Domain Name, type the name of the domain to which the printer is connected.
If the domain name successfully registers to the DNS server, the domain name appears under
Verified Domain Name.
Note:
If no domain name, or a different domain name appears, the domain name did not
successfully register to the DNS server. Ensure that your network supports direct client DNS name
registration, or configure your DHCP server to perform updates on behalf of the DHCP clients.
Configure your DNS server to allow dynamic updates.
5.
Select
Enabled
under Dynamic DNS Registration of IPv4 Address, or Dynamic DNS Registration of
IPv6 Address, if desired. This option allows your DDNS server to register the host name of the printer
automatically. If you change the host name in CentreWare Internet Services, the registered host
name is updated on your DDNS server. Clear the
Enabled
check box if your network does not support
dynamic name addressing. Manage host names in the DNS server manually.
6.
Under Remove this Device's IPv4 DNS Registration, select
Enabled
if necessary. This option allows
the printer to send a release request to the DHCP and DNS servers. If the servers grant the request,
the current IP address and any dynamic DNS name are released when the printer is turned off.
7.
Under Remove this Device's IPv6 DNS Registration at power down, select
Enabled
if necessary. This
option allows the printer to release the current DCHP-assigned address and any DNS name when the
printer is turned off.
