Network Config : TCP/IP

Protocol
Indicates whether or not the network interface board is configured to use the TCP/IP protocol.

IP Address
IP address of the network interface board.

Subnet Mask
Subnet mask of the network interface board. This is used to set a portion of the IP address as the network address.

Default Gateway Address
Address of the host/router used as gateway to communicate with other subnets.

Access Control Address / Access Control Mask
When an IP address is used and the number of work stations which can print must be limited, the access control address and the access control mask can be used.

Using the concept of subnets, the computers allowed access to the printers can be limited by using the Access Control Mask. See the table below for an example when 192.168.15.16. is assigned to the network interface board as the Access Control Address.

Access Control Mask	Address with access
0.0.0.0	xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
255.0.0.0	192.xxx.xxx.xxx
255.255.0.0	192.168.xxx.xxx
255.255.255.0	192.168.15.xxx
255.255.255.255	192.168.15.16

If the access control mask is "0.0.0.0", all work stations have access.

Network Boot
Method used to assign an address to a network interface board with a computer. Methods include ARP+PING, RARP+TFTP, BOOTP, and four kinds of DHCP.

Representation	Effective method(N)
	ARP+PING	RARP+TFTP	BOOTP	DHCP
NONE
RARP+TFTP		Active
BOOTP			Active
RARP+BOOTP		Active	Active
ARP+PING	Active
ARP&RARP	Active	Active
ARP&BOOTP	Active		Active
ARP&RARP&BOOTP	Active	Active	Active
DHCP				Active
