TCP/IP Parameters Dialog Box

NEC 1765 Administration software allows you to
configure the printer for TCP/IP networks. The TCP/IP
Parameters dialog box allows you to configure your
LAN card for a TCP/IP network from the NetWare
NOS. See "NEC 1765 Administration Software for TCP/
IP" on page 5-27 for more information about NEC 1765
Administration software for TCP/IP.
Select the TCP/IP button or select the TCP/IP menu
option from the Configure menu in the Printer
Administration window to open the TCP/IP
Parameters dialog box. The TCP/IP Parameters dialog
box allows you to view and modify the IP address and
subnet mask.
IP Address: Enter the new IP address in this text
box.
Subnet Mask: Enter the new subnet mask in this text

Auto IP Address: If Auto IP is on, you can use the
UNIX commands arp and ping to change the LAN
card's IP address. Arp is a host command which
displays or modifies the host's ARP entry table to
assign a MAC address to a known IP address. For
more information see "Setting the TCP/IP Auto IP
Address" on page 5-10.
note:
If your network does not support arp,
changing the Auto IP Address setting has no effect.
