Description
IPv6 addresses configured on the print server are listed. For each address, the following
items are specified:
● Prefix length: identifies the number of bits that comprise the fixed portion of the
address. Typically, it is 64 and identifies network/subnet portion of the address.
●
Config By: identifies how the address was configured, such as auto-configuration
through link-local addressing, by a Router, by a DHCP(v6) server, or configured
manually.
●
Valid Lifetime: The length of time (lifetime) that the address can be used, after
which the address becomes invalid. This value is determined during the auto-
configuration process.
● Preferred Lifetime: The length of time (lifetime) that the address can be used
without limitation, but after which the address is deprecated — its use is
discouraged. The preferred lifetime is a subset of the valid lifetime. This value is
determined during the auto-configuration process.
If a router advertises itself to the print server as a default router on the local link, its IPv6
address and the length of time that it may be used are displayed.
Description
Specifies a readable IP name (the SNMP SysName object) for the network device. The
name must start with a letter and can end in a letter or number, up to 32 ASCII characters.
The default name is NPIxxxxxx, where xxxxxx are the last six digits of the LAN hardware
(MAC) address.
NOTE: Names, such as host names, must begin with a letter and can contain
only letters, numbers, periods (for domain names only), or hyphens. The
underline character (_) is not allowed.
Specifies the name of the Domain Name System (DNS) domain that the HP Jetdirect
print server resides in (for example, support.hp.com). It does not include the host name;
it is not the Fully Qualified Domain Name (such as printer1.support.hp.com).
The IPv4 and IPv6 domain names may be the same or different depending on the
network. For example, a separate IPv6 domain name may be assigned on networks
where segmentation of IPv4 and IPv6 hosts is desirable. If an IPv6 Domain Name is
assigned, it applies to the IPv6 network only.
Use the fields provided to configure the print server with primary and secondary Domain
Name System (DNS) servers on your IPv4 or IPv6 networks.
Primary: Specify the IP address of the primary DNS (Domain Name System) server.
Secondary: Specify the IP address of a secondary DNS server to use if the primary DNS
server is unavailable.
A Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) consists of a domain name appended to a host
name, and is used (for example, by DNS servers) to resolve an IP address associated
with a device.
