TCP/IP Configuration
7.1 Overview
This chapter describes configuring the Network Interface Board and your network for use
with TCP/IP communication in various environments.This includes:
• Installing in a Windows environment
• Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
• Windows Internet Name Service (WINS)
• FTP printing
• Printing on UNIX-based systems, including Linux
• Running Telnet
• Using the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP)
The Network Interface Board TCP/IP capability also operates with
lpr
spoolers on other
systems, and with spooler/supervisor capabilities that communicate raw print jobs to the
TCP/IP port.
The IP Peer-to-Peer redirector provided with the Network Interface Board for Windows
95/98/ME or Windows NT uses this TCP/IP port. The default port number is 10001 but
can be changed by using Telnet or SNMP or by accessing the Network Interface Board
HTML pages with MAP or a Web browser. For information on using Telnet, see
Section
7.7 Running Telnet
. For information on MAP and the HTML pages, see Chapter 3,
Monitoring the Network Interface Board.
7.2 Installing in a Windows Environment
Several versions and variations of Windows can be used on NetWare and TCP/IP
networks, as well as in a native Windows network. This flexibility provides you with
various options for setting up the network printing system even though this Network
Interface Board does not support NetBEUI.
