When Using Dhcp; Configuring The Scanner With A Reserved Ip Address - Ricoh 3245e Operating Instructions Manual

When Using DHCP

Note the following points when using
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol).
Supported Systems
Windows NT Server 4.0 can be con-
figured as a DHCP server.
Configuring the Scanner with
a Reserved IP Address
To always assign the same IP address,
configure a reserved IP address using
the DHCP server.
Note
When multiple DHCP servers are
used, reserve the same IP address
with each DHCP server. The Net-
work Interface Board needs to re-
ceive information from the DHCP
server that it contacts.
Follow these steps to configure the
scanner with a reserved IP address.
A
Start the DHCP manager.
B
Select the scope that will be used,
and on the [Scope] menu, click
[Reservation].
C
Type the IP address into [IP Address].
D
Type the MAC address of the Net-
work Interface Board into [Unique
Identifier].
Note
Do not use hyphens to separate
the numbers.
If you do not know the MAC
address, it can be found on the
configuration page printed by
the printer.
E
Type a name and comment into
the [Client Name] box and the [Client
Comment] box.
Note
For more information about cli-
ent names, see P.45 "The Others".
F
Click [Add].
An IP address is reserved.
G
Click [Close] to close the dialog
box.
The Others
• When you click [Active Lease] on
the [Scope] menu of DHCP manag-
er, a list of client leases appears.
When the reserved IP address is
not active, the name of the reserva-
tion is the name entered in the cli-
ent Name field of the Add
Reserved Clients dialog box. When
the reserved IP address becomes
active, the client name changes to
the client name configured by the
Network Interface Board. Only the
first 13 letters of the scanner name
appear here.
• When the DHCP server does not
assign an IP address, the network
interface of this scanner unit uses
11.22.33.44 as a temporary IP ad-
dress. P.11 "Setting Up the Net-
work Environment"
• Because 11.22.33.44 is a special IP
address, you cannot scan using
this address.
• When using DHCP relay agent in a
network environment that uses a
dial up router to connect to the net-
work interface of this scanner unit,
an increase in communication fees
can occur.
