Config Reference : TCP/IP


Protocol
Shows whether the Network Interface Board is configured to use the TCP/IP protocol.

IP Address
Shows the IP address of the Network Interface Board.

Subnet Mask
Shows the subnet mask of the Network Interface Board. This is used to set a portion of the IP address as the network address.

Default Gateway Address
Shows the default gateway address, which is the host/router used to communicate with other networks.

Access Control Address / Access Control Mask
When an IP address is used and the number of workstations which can print must be limited, the access control address and the access control mask can be used.
Using the concept of subnets, the computers allowed access to the printers can be limited by using the Access Control Mask. See the table below for an example when 192.168.15.16. is assigned to the Network Interface Board as the Access Control Address.

Access Control Mask Addresses with access
0.0.0.0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
255.0.0.0 192.xxx.xxx.xxx
255.255.0.0 192.168.xxx.xxx
255.255.255.0 192.168.15.xxx
255.255.255.255 192.168.15.16

If the access control mask is "0.0.0.0", all workstations have access.

Network Boot
Shows a method to specify the address using the computer.
You can select one of the following methods include ARP+PING, RARP+TFTP, BOOTP and DHCP.

WINS
Shows whether WINS name resolution for the Network Interface Board is enabled.

Primary WINS Server
The IP address of the primary WINS server.
If DHCP is turned on, the WINS server address is obtained from the DHCP server. In this case the Network Interface Board might be using a different address to that specified here. You can check which address is actually being used, check the system log under [Admin Info.]-[Ethernet board].

Secondary WINS Server
The IP address of the secondary WINS server.

Frame Type
Shows the frame type being used.
You can only use Ethernet II.

SNMP / LPR / RSH/RCP / DIPRINT / FTP / IPP
Whether each protocol is enabled or disabled on the Network Interface Board is displayed.

IPP Timeout
When printing by IPP protocol, a printing timeout occurs when no print data has been sent after the amount of time shown here has elapsed. The default setting is "900 seconds".
