IPv4

Specify whether IPv4 is active or inactive.

Note

DHCP

Select Active to use the DHCP server to automatically configure the network settings. Select Inactive to manually configure the network settings.

IPv4 Address

Enter the IPv4 address of the network interface board or wireless LAN interface unit.
At DHCP operation, the address obtained from the DHCP server is used.

Subnet Mask

Enter the sub-net mask of the network interface board and wireless LAN board. The sub-net mask is a part of the IP address used as a network address.
When using DHCP, the sub-net mask obtained from the DHCP server is used.

Primary WINS Server

Enter the primary WINS server IP address.
When using DHCP, the primary WINS server address obtained from the DHCP server is used. If the address cannot be obtained from the DHCP server, the primary WINS server address set for the device is used.

Secondary WINS Server

Enter the secondary WINS server IP address.
The secondary WINS server is used when the primary WINS server is not available to register the device name. When using DHCP, the secondary WINS server address obtained from the DHCP server is used. If the address cannot be obtained from the DHCP server, the secondary WINS server address set for the device is used.

Default Gateway Address

Enter the default gateway address.
The default gateway address is the IP address of the host or router used as the gateway when communicating (printing or exchanging information) with a computer on another network.
When using DHCP, the default gateway address obtained from the DHCP server is used. If the address cannot be obtained from the DHCP server, the default gateway address set for the device is used.

Note

Scope ID

Enter the NetBIOS scope ID you want to set for the network interface board and wireless LAN board, using up to 31 characters.
When using DHCP, the scope ID obtained from the DHCP server is used. If the ID cannot be obtained from the DHCP server, the ID set for the device is used.

Use the same host name as Ethernet

Select whether to use the same host name as the Ethernet.

Host Name

Enter the host name you want to set for the network interface board or wireless LAN interface unit, using up to 63 characters. The default is RNP, followed by the MAC address of the active interface board. If you change the name to other than the default, the new name cannot begin with "RNP" or "rnp".

Note

IPv6

To Top of the Page

IPv6

Specify whether IPv6 is active or inactive.

Note

Link-local Address

Displays the link-local address of the network interface board or wireless LAN board.
The link-local address applies only within the local network (local segment) and begins with "fe80::", followed by an identifier generated from the MAC address of the active interface board.

Stateless Address

Specify the stateless address of the network interface board or wireless LAN board.

Stateless Address Autoconfiguration

Specify whether auto-generation of IPv6 addresses is active or inactive.

Stateless Address 1 to Stateless Address 5

Displays auto-generated IPv6 addresses.

Manual Configuration Address

Enter the IPv6 address assigned for the network interface board or wireless LAN board.

Note

Manual Configuration Address (prefix length)

Enter the prefix length of the IPv6 address, using a value between 1 and 128. The default is 64.

DHCPv6

Select Active to use the DHCPv6 server to automatically configure the network settings. Select Inactive to manually configure the network settings.

DHCPv6 Address

Displays the address obtained from the DHCPv6 server.

Default Gateway Address

Enter the default gateway address.
The default gateway address is the IPv6 address of the host or router used as the gateway when communicating (printing or exchanging information) with a computer on another network.
If Stateless Address Autoconfiguration is set to Active, the link-local address of the router is set as the default gateway address. If you specify a default gateway address here, that address is used.
The value currently in use appears in parentheses.

Note

IPv4/IPv6 Detailed Information

To Top of the Page

LLMNR, LPR, DIPRINT, IPP, WINS, Bonjour

Specify whether each protocol is active or inactive.

UPnP Setting

Select whether to enable or disable the UPnP setting.

DIPRINT/LPD/IPP Timeout

When printing using WSD (Web Services on Devices) or IPP, specify the time the machine waits for job data before canceling the job.
You can specify a timeout period of 30 to 65535 seconds.
The default timeout period is 900 seconds.

SNMP

Specify whether SNMP is active or inactive for the interface board(s).

SNMPv1/v2

To Top of the Page

SNMPv1,v2 Function

Specify whether to enable or disable SNMPv1 and v2.

Community Name

Enter the name of the community to which the network interface board belongs, using up to 15 characters. If the community name is different from that of the hosts, requests from the hosts will not be accepted.

SNMPv3

To Top of the Page

SNMPv3 Function

Specify whether SNMPv3 is active or inactive.

Context Name

Displays the context name of the device.
The context name is fixed to "GWNCS".

Authentication Algorithm

Select an authentication algorithm for SNMPv3.

Encryption Settings

Set the encryption settings to use with SNMPv3.

Encryption Algorithm

Select an encryption algorithm for SNMPv3.

Account Name (User)

Enter a user name for the User account, using up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The default User account name is "initial".

Authentication Password (User)

Enter a password for the User account, using up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The password is case sensitive. Minimum character limits vary depending on the machine's password policy settings.

Encryption Password (User)

Enter a password for encrypting the User account password, using up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The encryption password is case sensitive.

Note

Access Type (User)

In the list, select an access type for the User account to access the device.

Not Accessible

No access permitted.

read-only

You can read the information, but not edit it.

Ethernet Speed

To Top of the Page

Ethernet Speed

Specify an ethernet communication speed. Auto Select: Disable 1Gbps is selected by default. This allows the device to select the optimum speed.
Select Auto Select: Enable 1Gbps if you want to enable a communication speed of 1Gbps. However, the Auto Select: Enable 1Gbps setting will consume more power than the Auto Select: Disable 1Gbps setting in the energy saver mode.
If communication with the device fails, select 10Mbps Full Duplex, 10Mbps Half Duplex, 100Mbps Full Duplex, or 100Mbps Half Duplex.

Access Control

To Top of the Page

IPv4 Access Control Range 1 to Access Control Range 4

Enter the IPv4 address range of the computers to be allowed access to the machine.
Up to four sets of ranges can be entered. Access from addresses not included in these ranges is prohibited.
If specifying less than four sets, set the unspecified ranges to [0.0.0.0] - [0.0.0.0].
To allow access from all computers, set all ranges to [0.0.0.0]- [0.0.0.0].

IPv6 Access Control Range 1 to Access Control Range 4

Enter the IPv6 address range of the computers to be allowed access to the machine, using the IP address range or a combination of base address and mask.
Up to four sets of ranges or prefixes can be entered. Access from addresses not included in these ranges or prefixes is prohibited.
To specify a range, select Mask, enter the base address, and then enter the mask range in the Mask Length box using a value between 1 and 128.
If specifying less than four sets, set the unspecified ranges to [::] - [::].
To allow access from all computers, set all ranges to [::]- [::].

Note

IPv6 Base Address n

Set the base address n to use in the optional network interface.

IPv6 Mask Length n

Set the mask length of the base address n to use in the optional network interface.
