Ipx/Spx - HP 635n - JetDirect IPv6/IPsec Print Server Administrator's Manual

IPX/SPX

The IPX/SPX tab allows you to configure IPX/SPX (Internet Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet
Exchange) parameters on the HP Jetdirect print server. IPX/SPX protocols are used for operation on a
Novell NetWare or IPX/SPX-compatible network (such as a Microsoft network). See
Tab Settings on page 74
CAUTION:
not disable IPX/SPX.
For a Novell NetWare network:
●
The embedded Web server may be used to select Queue Server Mode parameters in a Novell
Directory Services (NDS) environment.
●
You cannot create the NDS print server, printer, and queue objects using the embedded Web
server. To create these objects, use other available tools or utilities.

Description
Enables or disables the IPX/SPX protocols on the HP Jetdirect print server. If the checkbox is
empty, IPX/SPX is disabled.
Specify the IPX/SPX frame type to be used by the HP Jetdirect print server on your network.
After a frame type has been configured, all others will be counted and discarded.
● All Frame Types (Auto): senses all frame types and configures the first one detected
(default).
●
Ethernet 802.3 (EN_8023): limits the frame type to IPX over IEEE 802.3 frames.
● Ethernet II (EN_II): limits the frame type to IPX over Ethernet frames.
●
Ethernet 802.2 (EN_8022): limits the frame type to IPX over IEEE 802.2 with IEEE 802.3
frames.
● Ethernet SNAP (EN_SNAP): limits the frame type to IPX over SNAP with IEEE 802.3
frames.
Specifies the time interval (in seconds) that the HP Jetdirect print server waits to send Service
Advertising Protocol (SAP) messages, which are broadcast to advertise its service capabilities
on a Novell NetWare network. To disable SAP messages, use the value "0". 60 is the default
value.
Specify a NetWare printer name for the HP Jetdirect print server (alphanumeric characters
only). The default name is NPIxxxxxx, where xxxxxx are the last six digits of the HP Jetdirect
print server's LAN hardware (MAC) address.
Specify the name of the NDS tree for this device. The NDS (Novell Directory Services) tree
name refers to the name of the organizational tree used by your network. To disable NDS
support, leave this field blank.
The print server's NDS context refers to the NDS container or organizational unit that contains
the print server object. Print queue and device objects can be located anywhere within the NDS
tree, but the HP Jetdirect print server must be configured with the fully-qualified print server
object name.
For example, if the print server object is found in the container "marketing.mytown.lj", the fully
qualified print server context name (CN) is:
"OU=marketing.OU=mytown.O=lj"
