Token Ring; Multiple Network Devices - Xerox DocuColor 2060 Installation Planning Manual

System overview
1-10
Regardless of printing or transmission protocol, the Ethernet
connection to the printer controller must be
compatible with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) 802.3 standard.

Token Ring

Users of network client workstations may send print jobs to the
printer over Token Ring network using TCP/IP, Novell 3.x, or
AppleTalk network protocol.
Regardless of printing transmission protocol, the Token Ring
connection to the printer controller must be compatible with the
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.5
standard.

Multiple network devices

Multiple network devices may be installed on the same controller.
The default network device that ships with your controller is a
100 Mbit Ethernet connection. You may install other network
devices by installing additional network cards, provided each
card has a unique network to which it connects. For example, if
you use a Token Ring network connection, you have the option of
using the default Ethernet device as a secondary network.
If you choose to install multiple network devices on your
controller, the following parameters apply:
• You must select a primary network device and designate any
others as secondary. The primary network device does not
have to be the default Ethernet device that ships with your
controller; it can be any of the network devices installed.
• You must run the TCP/IP protocol on the primary network
device. You may also run TCP/IP on other network devices.
For each network device running TCP/IP, you must specify a
unique IP address and IP netmask. For the primary network
device, you must specify the HostName and router IP
address. The HostName for any secondary devices is
created from the name chosen for the primary device.
NOTE: You may not use the controller as an IP router.
Consequently, the router IP address must be on the primary
network devices network only.
