2. Appendix

You can use the machine in a DHCP environment. You can also register the machine NetBIOS name on a

WINS server when it is running.

• Machines that register the machine NetBIOS name on a WINS server must be configured for the

WINS server.

• Supported DHCP servers are Microsoft DHCP Server included with Windows 2000 Server, Windows

Server 2003/2003 R2, Windows Server 2008, the DHCP server included NetWare and UNIX.

• If you do not use the WINS server, reserve the machine's IP address in the DHCP server so the same

IP address is assigned every time.

• To use the WINS server, change the WINS server setting to "active" using the control panel.

• Using the WINS server, you can configure the host name via the remote network machine port.

• DHCP relay-agent is not supported. If you use DHCP relay-agent on a network via ISDN, it will result

in increased line charges. This is because your computer connects to the ISDN line whenever a packet

is transferred from the machine.

• If there is more than one DHCP server, use the same setting for all servers. The machine operates using

data from the DHCP server that responds first.

• DHCP servers can operate in an IPv6 environment, but they cannot be configured to allocate IPv6

addresses or obtain host names.

If the machine IPv4 address is not automatically assigned by the DHCP server, a temporary IP address

starting with 169.254 and not used on the network can be automatically selected by the machine.

• The IP address assigned by the DHCP server is given priority over that selected by AutoNet.

• You can confirm the current IPv4 address on the configuration page. For more information about the

configuration page, see General Settings Guide.

• When AutoNet is running, the NetBIOS name is not registered on the WINS server.

• The machine cannot communicate with devices that do not have the AutoNet function. However, this

machine can communicate with Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.2.3. or higher.
