Figure 11. Preferences: Servers Tab
The Servers tab allows you to assign port values for the SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol) Trap Server, the Web Server, and the XML
Server. Click Service Enabled next to the corresponding server to turn it on.
NOTE: You must restart the PMU to use the new settings and enable the
servers.
SNMP Trap Server: The service that enables the PMU to receive alerts from
the printer when its status changes. Once the PMU receives the alert, the
PMU creates an instant status poll to reflect the change in the database pane.
For instance, if you turn the printer offline, the printer sends an alert to the
PMU causing it to change the printer status instantly. In the database pane,
the printer status changes to offline.
NOTE: The SNMP Trap Server works only if the printer’s Ethernet Interface
is configured correctly using the Configure Print Servers utility. See
“Configure Print Servers” on page 145.
Web Server: Allows you to view the active PMU using a web browser. See
“Web Access” on page 121.
NOTE: If you want to use the Web Server service, you must also enable the
XML Server service.
XML Server: The PMU uses XML to communicate with its web server.
