2.0 Find the print server in the network
Assoonastheprintserverisconnectedtothenetwork,itcheckswhetheranIPaddresscanbeobtained
viathebootprotocolBOOTPorDHCP.Ifthisisnotthecase,theprintserverusesZeroconftoassignitself
anIPaddressfromtheaddressrange(169.254.0.0/16)reservedforZeroconf.
The‚SmartProductManager‘isasowaretoolformanagingandmanagingnetworkdevices.Withthis

overseveralconneconsandestablishingconneconsbetweennetworkparcipantsonthisbasis.
TheTCP/IPprotocolfamilyincludesthebootprotocolsDHCPandBOOTP.YoucandenevariousIPv4para-
metersforopmalintegraonoftheprintserverintoaTCP/IPnetwork.

3.2 IPv6 Parameter
IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6) is the successor to the Internet Protocol Version 4 that is currently pre-
dominantlyused.BothprotocolsarestandardsforthenetworklayeroftheOSImodelandregulatethead-
dressingandroungofdatapacketsthroughanetwork.TheintroduconofIPv6oersmanyadvantages:
• Enlargementoftheaddressspacefrom232(IPv4)to2128(IPv6)IPaddresses.
• Autoconguraonandrenumbering
• Increasedeciencyinroungthroughreducedheaderinformaon.
• StandardintegratedservicessuchasIPSec,QoS,Mulcast
• Mobile IP
3.3 How is an IPv6 address represented?
IPv6addressesare128bitslongandarerepresentedas8x16bitsinhexadecimal.Theeightblocksare
separatedbyacolon.
 Example: fe80 : 0000 : 0000 : 0000 : 0000 : 10 : 1000 : 1a4
Leadingzeroscanbeneglectedforsimplicity.
 Example: fe80 : 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : 10 : 1000 : 1a4
Ablockofconguouszeroscanbecombinedwithtwoconsecuvecolons.Inorderfortheaddresstore-
mainunique,thisrulemayonlybeappliedonce.
 Example: fe80 : : 10 : 1000 : 1a4
InaURL,anIPv6addressisenclosedinsquarebrackets.Thisnotaonpreventsincorrectinterpretaonof
portnumbersaspartoftheIPv6address.
Example:hp://[2001:608:af:1::100]:443
3.3.1 What are the IPv6 address types?
IPv6addressescanbedividedintodierenttypes.IPv6addresstypescanbederivedbasedontheprexes
intheIPv6addresses.
• Unicastaddressesareroutable,globallyuniqueandthereforeunambiguousaddresses.Apacketsentto
aunicastaddressonlyarrivesontheinterfaceassociatedwiththataddress.Unicastaddresseshavethe
prexes‚2‘or‚3‘.
• Anycastaddressescanbereceivedbyseveralparcipantsatthesameme.Adatapacketthatissent
tothisaddressarrivesatseveraldevices.Anycastaddressesdonotdierintheirsyntaxfromunicast
addresses,buttheyselectoneinterfacefromseveralinterfaces.Apacketdesnedforananycastad-
dressarrivesattheclosest(accordingtotheroutermetric)interface.Anycastaddressesareonlyused
byrouters.
• Withthemulcastaddress,datapacketscanbesenttoseveralinterfacesatthesamemewithoutthe
bandwidthincreasinginproporontotheparcipants.Amulcastaddresscanberecognizedbythe
prex‚‘.

3.6 How to use SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) has become the standard protocol for managing and moni-
toringnetworkelements.Theprotocolregulatesthecommunicaonbetweenthemonitoreddevicesand
themonitoringstaon.
SNMPallowsreadingandchangingmanagementinformaonprovidedbythenetworkelements.Thecol-
leconofmanagementinformaonforadeviceiscalledMIB.
Private MIB of the print server
Theprintserverprovidesthestandard‚MIB-II‘anda‚PrivateMIB‘(ManagementInformaonBase).All
printserverparametersandstatusinformaonarestoredinthe‚PrivateMIB‘.The‚PrivateMIB‘isstoredin
theprintserverupondeliveryandcanbeusedimmediately.
³ Benetandpurpose
TheprintserverparameterscanbequeriedandconguredbyamanagementtoolusingtheSNMPproto-
col.
