ENWW TCP/IP Configuration 36

With link-local addresses, subnetting is not used. The subnet

mask will be 255.255.0.0, and cannot be changed.

Link-local addresses will not route off the local link, and access

to or from the Internet will not be available. The default gateway

address will be the same as the link-local address.

If a duplicate address is sensed, the HP Jetdirect print server

will automatically reassign its address, if necessary, in

accordance with standard link-local addressing methods.

● On large or enterprise IP networks, a temporary address of

192.0.0.192 will be assigned until it is reconfigured with a valid

address through supported TCP/IP configuration tools. We refer

to this address as Legacy Default IP.

● On mixed-environment networks, the self-assigned default IP

address may be either 169.254/16 or 192.0.0.192. In this case,

you should verify on the Jetdirect configuration page that the

assigned default IP address is as expected.

The IP address configured on your print server may be determined

by inspecting the Jetdirect configuration page for the print server.

See Chapter 9

Default IP Address Configuration Options

Default IP Parameter

A Default IP configuration parameter on the print server controls

how the default IP address is assigned. Whenever the print server

is unable to obtain an IP address during a forced TCP/IP

reconfiguration (for example, when manually configured to use

BOOTP or DHCP), this parameter will determine the default IP

address to use.

When the print server is in a factory-default state, this parameter

is undefined.

If the print server is initially configured with a default IP address

(either a link-local IP address or the legacy default 192.0.0.192 IP

address), the Default IP parameter will be set to either Auto IP or

Legacy Default IP to match.

The Default IP parameter can be changed through a supported

configuration tool, such as Telnet, a Web browser, a printer control

panel, and SNMP management applications.
