TCP/IP Advanced tab
Item
Description
Idle Timeout
(IPv4 or IPv6) Number of seconds that an idle connection is allowed to remain open. The default is 270 seconds. Enter to 3600 seconds. If set to 0, the timeout is disabled and TCP/IP connections remain open until closed by the device at the other end of the network (for example, a workstation).
LPD Banner Page
(IPv4 or IPv6) Print an LPD banner page for print jobs. For currently supported print servers, only Port 1 is available.
System Contact
(IPv4 or IPv6) Person who administers or services this device.
If set, displayed on the Protocol Info page, and the HP Jetdirect Home tab, if available.
System Location
(IPv4 or IPv6) Physical location of the device or related information. Enter up to 64 alphanumeric characters.
If set, displayed on the Protocol Info page, and the HP Jetdirect Home tab, if available.
Automatic
(IPv4 only) Web proxy discovery is automatically initiated (default).
Manual cURL
(IPv4 only) Web proxy server is automatically selected using a configuration script that is based on the user location. Specify the script by entering the URL in this field.
Manual Settings
(IPv4 only) Web proxy defaults are set manually using the following methods:
Proxy Server
(For printers/MFPs that support this feature)
(IPv4 only) Proxy server to use by embedded applications in your printer/MFP. Enter up to 64 alphanumeric characters. A proxy server is typically used by network clients for Internet access. It caches Web pages and provides a degree of Internet security for those clients.
Enter its IP address or FQDN.
On some networks, you might need to contact your ISP for the proxy server address.
Proxy Server Port
(For printers/MFPs that support this feature)
(IPv4 only) Port number used by the proxy server for client support. Enter a value from 0 to 65535. The port number identifies the port reserved for proxy activity on your network.
Proxy Server User Name
(For printers/MFPs that support this feature)
(IPv4 only) If a user account is set on the proxy server, enter the user name.
Proxy Server Password
(For printers/MFPs that support this feature)
(IPv4 only) If a user account is set on the proxy server, enter the user password.
Proxy Server Exception List
(For printers/MFPs that support this feature)
(IPv4 only) Web addresses, host names, or domain names not requiring access through the proxy server. Use a semicolon (;) to separate entries.
Disable
Do not automatically search for the web proxy.
Default IP
(IPv4 only) IP address to use when the print server cannot obtain an IP address from the network during a forced TCP/IP re-configuration. This situation can occur if the print server is configured to use BOOTP/DHCP.
LEGACY DEFAULT_IP Set the legacy default IP address 192.0.0.192.
AUTO_IP Sets a link-local IP address 169.254.x.x.
The initial setting is determined by the IP address obtained when first turned on.
Send DHCP requests if IP address is Auto IP (169.254.x.x) or Legacy Default IP
(IPv4 only) Periodically transmit DHCP requests when a legacy default IP address 192.0.0.192 or link-local IP address 169.254.x.x is automatically assigned.
Select or clear the check box to enable (default) or disable DHCP requests.
Use Stateless DHCPv4 When Manually Configured
(IPv4 only) Allow additional IPv4 parameters to be automatically configured from a DHCPv4 server even when the print server is statically configured, such as a manually configured IP address, subnet mask or default gateway.
Select or clear the check box to enable (default) or disable stateless DHCPv4 configuration.
Enable DHCPv4 FQDN compliance with RFC 4702
By default, HP Jetdirect uses the Host Name and Domain Name settings to derive the FQDN. Selecting this option forces HP Jetdirect to ignore the Host Name and Domain Name settings and instead use the host name and domain name returned by FQDN.
Hop Limit/WSD
Set the WS-Discovery hop limit for the site local IPv6 multicast packet.
TTL/SLP
(IPv4 only) IP multicast time-to-live (TTL) discovery setting for SLP packets. Enter from 1 to 15. The default value is 4 hops (the number of routers from the local network). Set to −1 to disable multicast capability.
For print servers configured for Auto IP (link-local) addresses, this setting is ignored. TTL on outbound packets is always set to 255 and limited to the link-local network.
Syslog Server
(IPv4 only) IP address of a host computer that is configured to receive syslog messages from the HP Jetdirect print server. If a syslog server is not specified, syslog messages are disabled.
Syslog Maximum Messages
(IPv4 only) Maximum number of syslog messages sent by the HP Jetdirect print server per minute. Allows you to control the log file size. The default is 10 per minute. If set to zero, no maximum number is defined.
Syslog Priority
(IPv4 only) Filter syslog messages sent to the syslog server. Enter from 0 to 7, with 0 being the most specific and 7 being the most general. Only messages that are lower than the specified filter level (that is, higher in priority) are reported. The default value 7 reports all syslog messages. A value of 8 disables syslog reporting.
