Before using this product c (Check the network environment)
This product maintains a conversion list for IPv6 addresses and IPv4 addresses and automatically
converts IPv6 addresses to IPv4 addresses to establish communication with the MFP main unit.
To utilize this function, a certain address range within the IPv4 address area on the network needs to
be exclusively reserved as a work area for this product.
Following are the conditions regarding the IPv4 address range to be registered to this product.
- The addresses should be available on the network to which this product will be connected.
- The addresses should not already be in use on the network to which this product will be connected.
- Enough addresses should be reserved for all IPv6 devices to be communicated with via this
product. (One address is used for this product.)
- A contiguous address range should be reserved.
Example: When fifty IPv6 devices are connected to an IPv4 network that uses the address
range from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.254 :
IPv4 address range on
the network
192.168.0.1
192.168.0.10
192.168.0.60
Used by the devices
on the network
192.168.0.254
Before configuring the environmental settings of this product, check the IPv4 address range assigned
to the network environment where this product is to be connected, and reserve the IPv4 address
range to be registered to this product.
* If the IPv4 address range to be registered for this product is not appropriate, the MFP main
unit and the IPv6 devices will not be able to communicate properly. Please be sure to perform
the above check.
